Robin pushes a wheelbarrow by exerting a 154 N force horizontally. Robin moves it 55 m at a constant speed for 19 s. What power does Robin develop? Answer in units of W.

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please note that the speed v of the wheelbarrow is: \[v=\frac{ 55 }{ 19 }\approx 2.9 m/s\] Now in order to compute the power P you have to apply this formula: \[P=F*v\] where F is your force, namely F=154 Newton. Your esult will be measured in Watt, since: \[Watt=1 Newton*1m/\sec\]
