Answer:

Power =  50204 [watts]

Explanation:

We know that the power is defined by the following expression:

Power = Work/time

where:

Power [watts]

time [seconds]

The work done will be the following:

Work = Force * distance [Joules]

Force[Newtons]

distance[meters]

Force = mass* gravity

Force=290 [kg]*9.81[m/s^2] =2844.9[N]

Work = 2844.9[N]*300[m] = 853470[J]

Therefore

Power = 853470 / 17 = 50204 [watts]

vredina [299]
If the soloist produces "x" decibels and the 10-person choir produces "y" decibels, combined they will produce "x+y" decibels. 

The second choir has 90 additional singers, we base our description on the first choir. If a 10-person choir produces "x+y" decibels, then the 90 person choir produces 10 (x+y) decibels.

convert watts to hpThe headlights of a moving car draw about 9 A from the 12 V alternator, which is driven by the engine. Assume
iVinArrow [24]

Answer: 0.17hp

Explanation:

Power output = power input × 85%

Power output = power input × 0.85

Power input = IV/0.85

Power input = 9×12/0.85

Power input = 108/0.85

= 127.058 watts

Converting to horse power = 127.058W × 1horse power/745.7W

= 127.058 × 0.001341

= 0.17hp
