Final Jeopardy!!!!!
Two people are climbing stairs to reach the
6th floor of a building. One takes a set of
steep stairs and the other takes a spiral
staircase. Which person is doing more work.
Explain.
Neither, they are both doing the same amount of work. The
spiral staircase is increasing the distance, so that person is
using less force, but is doing the same amount of work as the
person taking the steep staircase.
