A 200-lb man carries a 10-lb can of paint up a helical staircase that encircles a silo with radius 30 ft. If the silo is 60 ft high and the man makes exactly two complete revolutions, how much work is done by the man against gravity in climbing to the top

17.07 kJ

Explanation:

The work done against gravity by the man W equals the potential energy change of the man and can of paint, ΔU

W = ΔU = mgΔy where m = mass of man and can of paint = 200 lb + 10 lb = 210 lb = 210 × 1 kg/2.205 lb, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and Δy = height of silo = 60 ft = 60 × 1m/3.28 ft

Since W = mgΔy, we substitute the values of the variables into the equation.

So,

W = mgΔy

W = 210 lb × 1 kg/2.205 lb × 9.8 m/s² × 60 ft × 1m/3.28 ft

W = 123480/7.2324 J

W = 17073.2 J

W = 17.0732 kJ

W ≅ 17.07 kJ

the current is 0.6

voltage ÷ resistance = current

so 12 ÷ 20 = 0.6
