No.The Causality said:by using your analogy, it need (insert the result of the calc) to maintain the rock in the air, no?
How does lower end of the ladder being supported by the ground change anything? The ground is always assumed to be 0 potential energy level and that level doesn't rise rising with each step I take. The resultant force acting apon the ledder is still 0 due to Newtons' third law so all the force is applied on my own. I honestly don't understand what do you mean by that. I'm still moving to the opposite direction to vector of my body weight, therefore I am generating work. And I absolutely can compare it to PE because PE is weight times height.TataHakai said:Ugariki what are you talking about?
Are you genuine with this or? How are you comparing climbing a ladder to lifting something in the air without the support of the ladder which HAS to be touching the ground, thus making the distance between the ladder and the ground 0, meaning GPE doesn't work here at all because the upper ends of the 500 meter ladder are being supported by the lower ends which are already touching the ground.
It SHOULD be a lifting strength feat only (or at least that's what I'm trying to prove)DontTalkDT said:What I have yet to understand is why we are talking about this. The chibaku tensei thingy is a lifting feat, no?
If this argument is sound I agree.TataHakai said:If we're going by "The ball isn't moving so the energy to keep it afloat is 0" then we might as well start removing 99% of PE calcs on this website since most of them go by that logic
