Question 7 • TX-Physics A

Hiro walks up a flight of stairs in his apartment building. Later in the day, he runs up the same flight of stairs.

Answer
A
He did more work running than walking.
B
He did more work walking than running.
C
He had more power running than walking.
D
He had more power walking than running.

Explanation

Work against gravity depends on the change in height and Hiro’s weight. Since he climbs the same stairs both times, he does the same amount of work walking and running. Power is work divided by time; running takes less time, so he has more power running than walking.
