What is the formula for calculating mechanical power​

Physics
1 answer:
Oksi-84 [34.3K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Because work can be defined as force time distance, we can also use the following equation

Solution

P=power (w or ft-lbf/s)

F=force (N or lbf)

D=distance (m or ft)

T=time (sec)

One horsepower is equivalent to 550 ft-lbf/s and 745.7 watts.

You are running at a speed of 10km/h and hit a patch of mud. Two seconds later you speed is 8km/h. What is your acceleration in
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

0.28 m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration is given by

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time interval

In this problem:

u = 10 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=2.78 m/s is the initial velocity

v = 8 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}= 2.22 m/s is the final velocity

t = 2 s is the time

Substituting, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{2.78-2.22}{2}=0.28 m/s^2

A train slows down from 34 m/s to 4 m/s in 60 seconds. what is it's acceleration?
OverLord2011 [107]
Acceleration = change in velocity / time

change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

because the object is slowing down, the acceleration will be negative.

acceleration = (4-34) / 60
acceleration = -30 / 60
acceleration = -0.5 m/s^2

answer : the train is accelerating at -0.5 m/s^2
