(a) Let's convert the final speed of the car in m/s:
The kinetic energy of the car at t=19 s is
(b) The average power delivered by the engine of the car during the 19 s is equal to the work done by the engine divided by the time interval:
But the work done is equal to the increase in kinetic energy of the car, and since its initial kinetic energy is zero (because the car starts from rest), this translates into
(c) The instantaneous power is given by
where F is the force exerted by the engine, equal to F=ma.
So we need to find the acceleration first:
And the problem says this acceleration is constant during the motion, so now we can calculate the instantaneous power at t=19 s:

The efficiency of the scissor is 200%.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Efficiency is defined as the ratio of output of any instrument or device or machine to the input supplied to it. So the greater the output the greater will be the efficiency of the device.
As here the work done by us on the system is said to be 10 J so this will be equal to the input work done on the system. And the work done by the system i.e., the scissor is 20 J, so this will be the output work.
So, the efficiency is the ratio of output to input as shown below.
Efficiency = = 200
So, the efficiency of the scissor is 200%.
