Explanation:
Given that,
Weight = 280 lbs
Height = 60 ft
Power = 3.50 hp
(a). We need to calculate the work done by the boom on the fireman
Using formula of work done


Put the value into the formula




The work done by the boom is 21.59 Btu.
(b). We know that,
1 hp = 550 ft lbf
So, 

We need to calculate the time
Using formula of time

Put the value into the formula


The time is 8.7 sec.
Hence, This is the required solution.
Assume theres no air reaistance. (or else the ball will oppose the motion of the ball, hence decrease the velocity increase)
see if there are any problems!

Well, we usually assume that the resistance of a circuit component
is constant and doesn't change. But the truth is that for anything
that conducts current, its resistance always increases somewhat
when it warms up.
For things like light bulbs, electric toasters, space heaters, electric
stove burners, the heat coils in a blow-dryer ... anything that's
designed to be really hot when it's doing its job ... the resistance
of those things increases significantly when they come up to their
operating temperatures.
