The current is defined as the amount of charge transferred through a certain point in a certain time interval:
where
I is the current
Q is the charge
is the time interval
For the lightning bolt in our problem, Q=6.0 C and
, so the average current during the event is
Answer:
25032.47 W
Explanation:
Power is the time rate of doing work, hence,
P = Work done(non conservative) / time
Work done (non conservative) is given as:
W = total K. E. + total P. E.
Total K. E. = 0.5mv²- 0.5mu²
Where v (final velocity) = 7.0m/s, u (initial velocity) = 0m/s
Total P. E. = mgh(f) - mgh(i)
Where h(f) (final height) = 7.2m, h(i) (initial height) = 0 m
=> W = 0.5mv² - mgh(f)
P = [0.5mv² - mgh(f)] / t
P = [(0.5*790*7²) - (790*9.8*7.2)] / 3
P = (19355 + 55742.4) / 3 = 75097.4/3
P = 25032.47 W

Answer:
536.56 m/s
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the momentum of the Porsche. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass (m) of Porsche = 1361 kg
Velocity (v) of Porsche = 26.82 m/s
Momentum of Porsche =?
Momentum = mass × velocity
Momentum = 1361 × 26.82
Momentum of Porsche = 36502.02 Kgm/s
Finally, we shall determine the velocity you need to be running with in order to have the same momentum as the Porsche. This can be obtained as follow:
Your Mass = 68.03 kg
Your Momentum = Momentum of Porsche = 36502.02 Kgm/s
Your velocity =?
Momentum = mass × velocity
36502.02 = 68.03 × velocity
Divide both side by 68.03
Velocity = 36502.02 / 68.03
Velocity = 536.56 m/s
Thus you must be running with a speed of 536.56 m/s in order to have the same momentum as Porsche.
