Answer:
313.92w
Explanation:
Formula for power:
P=W/∆t = Fv
Givens:
m=20kg
∆y=4.0m
∆t=2.5s
a=9.81m/s²
In order to find power, we first need to solve for work.
W=Fd (force*displacement), f=mg
W=mg∆y
W=(20kg)(9.81m/s²)(4.0m)
W=784.8J
P=W/∆t
P=784.8J/2.5s
P=313.92 watts
Here as we know that there is no loss of energy
so we can say that maximum kinetic energy will become gravitational potential energy at its maximum height
So here we have
here we have
v = 20 m/s
m = 8000 kg
now from above equation we have
so maximum height is 20.4 m
This question doesn't appear to be complete
If I am to understand this question correctly this is what asks you:
If a person is riding a motorized tricycle how much work do they do?
You may ask yourself, why did I only use part of the question. Simple, the rest is not relevant to what is being asked. The weight, speed, and distance wont affect the person riding any <em><u>motorized vehicle</u></em> other than the time it takes to get from one place to another.
So to answer this question I would say:
Not much, all they really have to do is to steer and set the motorized tricycle to cruise control. Just like any rode certified vehicle.
If you have any questions about my answer please let me know and I will be happy to clarify any misunderstandings. Thanks and have a great day!
