Answer:
Explanation:
The equation for Power is
P = Work/time to do work and the equation for work is
Work = FΔx
We first need to find the amount of work done, then we can find the power it took to do that work.
W = 2000(9.8)(28) so
W = 550,000 N*m
Now we fill that into the power equation:
gives us
P = 18000 Watts. But we need kW, so we divide by 1000 to get
P = 18 kW of power.

The heat required to change 1.25 kg of steak is 2825 kJ /kg.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Given, mass m = 1.25 kg, Temperature t = 100 degree celsius
To calculate the heat required,
Q = m L
where m represents the mass in kg,
L represents the heat of vaporization.
When a material in the liquid state is given energy, it changes its phase from liquid to vapor and the energy absorbed in this process is called heat of the vaporization. The heat of vaporization of the water is about 2260 kJ/kg.
Q = 1.25 2260
Q = 2825 kJ /kg.
