|
Use the following equations to solve for the answer.
power = work divided by time work = force x distance Mr. Myers is lifting a load of 40 Newtons. It takes him 10 seconds to lift the load 10 meters. How much power does Mr. Myers have? |
Work = force x distance
40N x 10m 400 joules Power = work divided by time 400j/10 seconds 40 watts of power |
|
Use the following equations to solve for the answer.
power = work divided by time work = force x distance Mr. Schmit is lifting a load of 40 Newtons. It takes him 40 seconds to lift the load 5 meters. How much power does Mr. Schmit have? |
Work = force x distance
40N x 5m 200 joules Power = work divided by time 200j/40 seconds 5 watts of power |
|
Use the work equation and solve.
work = force x distance Mrs. Johnson is pushing a box down the hallway. She uses a force of 30 Newtons. She moves the box 50 meters and then turns the corner and moves it another 20 meters. What is the work done by Mrs. Johnson? |
work = force x distance
distance = 70 m 30N x 70m work = 2100 Joules |
|
Use the work equation and solve.
work = force x distance Mrs. Omstead is pushing a box down the hallway. She uses a force of 50 Newtons. She moves the box 50 meters and then turns the corner and moves it another 40 meters. What is the work done by Mrs. Omstead? |
work = force x distance
distance = 90 m 50N x 90 m work = 4500 Joules |
