Answer: 5.9cm

Explanation:

15N/3cm=5

Convert 3kg to N (29.42N)

Use the 5 from earlier to divide 29.42/5=5.884

Round to 5.9

5.9cm is the answer

(I don’t know if I solved this the correct way but I got it right. 5.9 is the correct answer)

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

The power will be "250 watt". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Force,

F = 50 N

Displacement,

d = 20 m

Time,

t = 2.0 seconds

Whenever the block is pulled, the angle will be "0" i.e., Cos0° = 1

Now,

The work will be:

= Force\times displacement\times \Theta

On substituting the given values, we get

= 50\times 10\times Cos0^{\circ}

= 50\times 10\times 1

= 500 \ Newton

Now,

The Power will be:

= \frac{Work \ done}{time}

= \frac{500}{2.0}

= 250 \ watt
