Physics

Consider a system of an 85.0 kg man, his 20.5-kg dog, and theearth. The gravitational potential energy of the system increasesby 1.90 103 J when the man climbs a spiral staircasefrom the first to the second floor of an apartment building. If hisdog climbs a normal staircase from the same first floor to thesecond floor, by how much does the potential energy of the systemincrease (in J)?
