Question

Wyatt is moving a box with a mass of 37 kg a distance of 37 meters. Wyatt did 360 J of work in 2 minutes when moving the box. What was his power output? A) 9.72 W B) 3 W C) 180 W D) 323 W

Answer 1

His power output was 3 Watt (360 Joule/120 seconds). The power output can be calculated by dividing the quantity of work by the amount of second needed for the activity and also by multiplying the force amount with the velocity of the activity. The power output usually used for measuring the ability of machine for doing its job.

Answer 2

Answer:

Power output, P = 3 watts

Explanation:

It is given that,

Work done by Wyatt, W = 360 J

Time taken, t = 2 minutes = 120 s

We need to find the power output. It is given by:

$P=\dfrac{W}{t}$

Where

W = work done

t = time taken

So, $P=\dfrac{360\ J}{120\ s}$

P = 3 Watts

So, the power output is 3 to watts. Hence, this is the required solution.
