Power = Δenergy/Δtime  or  Δwork/Δtime
   
To solve this problem you first have to find what the energy or work value is. In this case I am going to solve for work.

Work = force × distance
           = 450 × 5
Work = 2250 J

Now that you know what the work value is you plug it into the power formula

P = Δwork/Δtime
    = 2250 J/2 min
Power = 1,125 watts


hope this helps :)

Answer: A. 18.75Watts

Explanation:

Power is defined as the rate of change of work done by a body. It is measures in Nms-¹ or watts.

Mathematically,

Power = Work done/time taken

Workdone = Force × distance moved in a specified direction.

Also note that the time must be in seconds being the standard unit.

Given Force = 450N

Distance = 5m

Time = 2minutes = 2 × 60 = 120seconds

Since Power = F × d/t

Power = 450 ×5/120

Power = 18.75 watts.

How can you use the movement of molecules to determine when a phase change has occurred?
baherus [9]

Answer:

These energy exchanges are not changes in kinetic energy. They are changes in bonding energy between the molecules. If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance. The example we will use here is ice melting into water.

A speedboat is moving at a constant speed, and the force propelling it forward is balanced by the force of the water pulling it
Kipish [7]
The correct answer is C: the speedboat's direction of motion will change. This is In fact, the new force of 500 N from the side of the boat is not balanced by any forces from the other side, and therefore this force will cause an acceleration in the direction of the force itself, which is not the same direction of motion. Therefore, the speedboat will acquire a movement on the lateral direction as well.

What is the power involved in lifting a 1.0-kg object 1.0 m in 1.0 s??
MAVERICK [17]
Mass  = 1kg 
Distance  = 1m 
Time = 1s
Force= Mass x Acceleration due to graviy
          =  1 x 9.8 = 9.8
Velocity = Distance  / time
              = 1 / 1 =1m/s
Power = Force x velocity
           = 9.8 x 1 = 9.8 W
