A disc is thrown through the air for 1.5 min with a power output of 12.5 W. How much work is done when throwing the disc?
klasskru [66]

Answer:

work = 1125 [J]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember the definition of power, which is defined as the relationship between work and time. The power can be calculated using the following equation:

Power = work/time

Power = 12.5 [w]

work = joules [J]

time = 1.5 [min] = 90 [s]

work = 12.5*90

work = 1125 [J]
