The atlas stone’s is a strong man competition where athletes have to load 5 stones of masses 100kg, 120kg, 140kg, 160kg and 180kg loaded onto 5 platforms, each at a height of 125cm. Travis Ortmayer from the USA, who completed all 5-atlas stones in 15.83s, and used to hold the world record for this event.

How much mechanical work in Joules does Travis do in lifting all 5 stones? Use g=10 m/s2 No partial credit will be given if there is no work shown. Do not include units in your answer.

6250 joules

Explanation:

The work needed to lift an object of mass M by a height H is equal to:

w = M*g*H

where h = 10m/s^2

then the total work that he did is equal to the sum of the work for every stone:

W = (100kg*g*H) + (120kg*g*H) + (140kg*g*H) + (160kg*g*H) + (180kg*g*H)

 = (100kg + 120kg + 140kg + 160kg + 180kg)*g*H

= (500kg)*g*H

and now we can repalce g by 10m/s^2 and H by 125cm

But you can notice that we have two different units of distance, so knowing that 100cm = 1m

we can write H =  125cm = (125/100) m = 1.25 m

Then we have:

H = 500kg*10m/s^2*1.25m = 6250 J

sleep paralysis is a parasomnia, events associated with sleep.

sleep paralysis happens when you are in the middle of waking up or falling asleep. it is the feeling of being conscious but unable to move. it definitely involves hallucinations.

i had a friend that had sleep paralysis and he told me a story one time where he was laying in bed and he couldn't move his body no matter how hard he tried and there was someone standing in the corner of his room coming towards him. he couldn't move and you can't "wake up" because you are already conscious. sometimes sleep paralysis can be triggered by frequent waking up during the night based off of multiple trips to the bathroom, or if you had ever been abused, sleep paralysis can start happening from things like that.
