An elevator motor lifts a 2750-kg load to a height of 37m in 12.5s. Find the useful power output of the elevator motor, if it also increases the speed from rest to 3.95 m/s. Assume that the total mass of the counterbalanced system is 10,000 kg — so that only 2750 kg is raised in height, but the full 10,000 kg is accelerated. How much does it cost, in dollars per hour, if the electricity cost is $0.075 per kW⋅h?
1) A child pulls on a wagon with a force of 75 N. If the wagon moves a total of 42 m in 3.1 minutes, what is the average power delivered by the child?
A car of mass 800.0 kg accelerates away from an intersection on a horizontal road. When the car speed is 39.6 km/hr (11.0 m/s), the net power which the engine supplies is 3900.0 W (in addition to the extra power required to make up for air resistance and friction). Calculate the acceleration of the car at that time.
