Calculate the amount of power in Watts) required to move an object weighing 525 N from point A to point B within 36 seconds. Distance between point A and point B is 3.5 meters and they are at the same level.

Answer:

Power required, P = 0 watts

Explanation:

It is given that,

Weight of the object, W = 525 N

Time taken to move from point A to B is, t = 36 s

Distance between A and B is 3.5 m.

Power required to move an object is given by work done divided by time taken.

[tex]P=\dfrac{W}{t}[/tex]

Work done, [tex]W=Fd\ cos\theta[/tex]

The weight of the object is acting in downward direction and object is moving in forward direction such that [tex]\theta=90[/tex]

[tex]W=Fd\ cos(90)[/tex]

Since, cos(90) = 0

This gives, work done = 0

As a result, the power required to move that object is 0 watts. Hence, this is the required solution.
