Answer:

a)15077 W

b)20.2185 horse power

Explanation:

P=F*V

F=ma

a=Vf-VS/t

Vf=28m/s

t=5.2

a=28/5.2

a=5.384 m/s²

F=100kg*5.384m/s²

F=538.4 N

P=F*V

P=538.4N*28m/s

P=15077 W=20.2185 horse power

1W=0.00134 Horse power

Electricity may be categorized as static or current. how are these two types of energy different
arlik [135]
Hello!

Static electricity occurs due to an imbalance in positively and negatively charged atoms. An example of this is when you take your clothes out of the dryer, and feel a slight sting when touching them. Another example of static electricity is lightning.

Current electricity occurs when there is a constant flow of electrons, such as in plug-operated machinery or anything operated using a battery. :)

Why do electrons rather than protons make up the flow of charge in a metal wire?
andrew-mc [135]
Protons are tightly bound to the nucleus of atoms, and the nucleus is
'shielded' from the outside world by the 'cloud' of electrons around it. 
It takes a lot of energy to separate a proton from the nucleus.  When
that happens, it's a 'radioactive' or a 'nuclear' event, and the atom has
changed into an atom of a different substance.  This isn't something
that's happening around us very often.

On the other hand, the electrons are on the outside of the atom, and
it's rather easy to convince an electron to leave its atom and flow off
to somewhere else.
