How much power does it take to lift a 30.0 n box 10.0 m high in 5.00 s, if you must apply a 62n force to lift the box?
1 answer:
Power is defined as the rate at which the body is doing work:
Work is defined as displacement done by the force times that displacement:
We know that we need 62N to move the box, so when we apply this force along the path of 10m we have done:
of work.
Now we just divide that by 5s to get how much power is required:
