Power is defined as the rate of doing work or the work per unit of time. The first step to solve this problem is by calculating the work which can be determined by the equation:

W = Fd

where:

F = force exerted = ma
d = distance traveled
m = mass of object
a = acceleration

Acceleration is equivalent to the gravitational constant (9.81 m/s^2) if the force exerted has a vertical direction such as lifting.

W = Fd = mad = 63(9.81)(7) = 4326.21 Joules

Now that we have work, we can calculate power.

P = W/t = 4325.21 J / 5 seconds = 865.242 J/s or watts

Convert watts to horsepower (1 hp = 745.7 watts)

P = 865.242 watts (1hp/745.7 watts) = 1.16 hp

work = mgh

power = mgh/t = 63•9.8•7/5 = 864 watts

1 HP = 746 watts

so that is 834/746 = 1.2 HP

Do you agree or disagree with the notion that there must be one master equation that describes the entire universe? Explain your
sashaice [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Well this really depends on you dude; this question asks for your opinion.

But personally I disagree with this because I like to use different ways to find the answer or in this case describe the entire universe. This is because I can use different variables to solve for the unknown.

If you agree, you can say something like I can memorize this equation or something along the lines.

The three-toed sloth is the slowest moving land mammal. On the ground, the sloth moves at an average speed of 0.037 m/s, conside
Georgia [21]

Answer:

tortoise distance w.r.t sloth is 28.08 m further

Explanation:

given data

average speed v1 = 0.037 m/s

walking speed v2 = 0.076 m/s

time t = 12 min = 720 seconds

to find out

how much tortoise have gone wrt sloth

solution

we find here first tortoise walk that is

distance d1 = v2 × t

distance d1 =  0.076  × 720

distance d1 = 54.72 m

and sloth walk distance

distance d2 = v1 × t

distance d2 = 0.037 × 720

distance d2 = 26.64 m

and so

tortoise distance w.r.t sloth = d1 - d2

tortoise distance w.r.t sloth = 54.72 - 26.64 = 28.08

tortoise distance w.r.t sloth is 28.08 m further
