1. Kenny is climbing the stairs of his apartment building for exercise. Kenny weighs 83 kg. There are 8 steps in each flight and the height of a single step on the staircase is 11 inches. He climbs the flight of stairs in 3.4 seconds. a.) calculate the long-term rate at which stairs can be climbed considering the given information.(how long can be sustained in stair per second) b.) Why does Kenny descend stairs at a faster rate for a nearly unlimited time although very similar forces are exerted descending as they are ascending?(This points to a fundamentally different process for descending versus climbing stairs.)

After Dan makes a basket, Josephine claims she can find the amount of time the ball was in the air (from the time it leave's Dan's hand to the time it enters the basket). 10 ft Josephine says she can do this by using Dan's equation ( h (t) = - 16t2 +18t + 8) and setting the equation equal to zero. Dan doesn't think Josephine's thinking is correct. Who do you agree with? Explain your reasoning using mathematical evidence. 0/10000 Word
