Power is the rate work done given by dividing work done by unit time. It is measured in watts equivalent to J/s.
In this case the force by the student is mg = 490 N (taking g as 9.8m/s²)
Work done is given by force × distance,
Therefore, Power =(force × distance)/ time, but velocity/speed =distance/time
Thus, Power = force × speed/velocity
                     = 490 N × 1.25
                     = 612.5 J/S (Watts)
Hence, power will be 612.5 Watts.

E<br> 3.6 What force is needed to give a mass of<br> 20 kg an acceleration of 5 m/s??
luda_lava [24]

Explanation:

  • Mass(m)= 20kg
  • Acceleration (a)= 5m/s²
  • Force(F)= ?

We know that,

  • F=ma
  • F=20×5
  • F=100N

Hence, the needed force is 100N.

What is the electric field strength inside the capacitor after insulating handles are used to pull the electrodes away from each
Bezzdna [24]
This question apparently comes after an EARLIER one,
where you were told either the voltage across the same
capacitor or the total charge stored in it.  You can't answer
THIS one without that information.

A point charge of 9.00 × 10−9 C is located at the origin of a coordinate system. A positive charge of 3.00 × 10−9 C is brought i
dlinn [17]

A point charge is located at the origin of a coordinate system. A positive charge is brought in from infinity to a point. The charges are at distance for given electrical potential energy is 3.34 x  10⁷ m.

<h3>What is electric potential energy?</h3>

The electric potential energy is the work done by a test charge to bring it from infinity to a particular location.

The electric potential energy is given by the relation,

V = kQ/r

where k = 9 x 10⁹ J.m/C ,Q = 3 x 10⁻⁹ C, V =8.09 × 10⁻⁷ J.

Substitute the values into the expression to get the distance between the charges.

8.09 × 10⁻⁷ =  9 x 10⁹ x  3 x 10⁻⁹ / r

r =3.34 x  10⁷ m

Thus, the distance between the charges will be 3.34 x  10⁷ m.

The acceleration due to gravity is higher on juniper Than on earth. The mass and weight of rock on juniper compared to that on e
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

2.5 times higher then that on the Earth

Explanation:

Gravity is higher on Jupiter then on Earth because Jupiter is much bigger, because of it's mass compared to Earth the gravity on Jupiter is about 2.4 - 2.5 times higher then Earths surface gravity which means a rock on Jupiter would be around "2.4 - 2.5 times as heavier then it would be on Earth."

Hope this helps.
