A title
Explanation:
Because this is middle school.
Answer:
approximately 5.8 seconds
Explanation:
if you where to time how fast a rock would fall 12 meters it would approximately be 5.8 seconds
First of all, that equation is not correct, which may be the reason
that you're having trouble assigning units to the quantities.
Power is defined as [energy / time], so [Energy] = [ power x time ],
and
[Time] = [ energy / power ].
Unit-wise, these equations are correct just as they appear here,
with no proportionality constants or conversion factors, when ...
[ Power ] = watts
[ Energy ] = joules
[ Time ] = seconds .
-- You and your partner both get the same job to do:
Each of you gets a pallet of bricks, and you have to
put the bricks up on the bed of a truck, by hand.
Both pallets have the same number of bricks.
The pallet is way too heavy to lift, so you both cut the bands
that hold the bricks, and you lift the bricks from the pallet onto
the truck, by hand, two or three or four bricks at a time.
-- You get your pallet of bricks onto the truck in 45 minutes.
-- Your partner gets his pallet of bricks onto the truck in 3 days.
-- Work = (force) times (distance).
You and your partner both lifted the same amount of weight
up to the same height. You both did the same amount of work.
-- Power = (work done) divided by (time it takes to do the work) .
Your partner took roughly 96 times as long as you took
to do the same amount of work.
You did it faster. He did it slower.
You produced more power. He produced less power.
In physical terms, a force does work if it moves an object in the direction the force is pointing towards.
In your example, the force is pushing a tray up. But the force doesn't move the tray any further up. It remains at the same height.
The is no force done by this force.
