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]

If a 1 kg book has 46 Joules of gravitational potential energy how high is the shelf it is on?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

4.7m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the book  = 1kg

Gravitational potential energy  = 46J

Unknown:

Height of the shelf  = ?

Solution:

The potential energy is due to the position of a body above the ground.

        Gravitational potential energy  = mgh

m is the mass,

g is the acceleration due gravity  = 9.8m/s²

h is the height which is unknown

                       46  = 1 x 9.8 x h

                       h  = 4.7m
