An automated conveyor belt pulls a heavy cargo container across a level $14\text{-meter}$ warehouse floor in $7\text{ seconds}$ by exerting a constant horizontal force of $250\text{ N}$ . What is the power output delivered by the conveyor belt to the container?

A
$3{}500\text{ W}$
B
$125\text{ W}$
$500\text{ W}$ Cevap
D
$24{}500\text{ W}$

Cevap

The power output delivered by the conveyor belt is

500\text{ W}

Power is defined as work done divided by time (

P = \frac{W}{t}

). The conveyor belt performs

3{}500\text{ J}

of work (

250\text{ N} \times 14\text{ m}

). Over an interval of

7\text{ seconds}

, the power delivered is

\frac{3{}500\text{ J}}{7\text{ s}} = 500\text{ W}

Adım Adım Çözüm

Calculate the mechanical work performed using

W = F \times d

W = 250\text{ N} \times 14\text{ m} = 3{}500\text{ J}

Work is the product of the applied force and the displacement in the direction of the force.

Calculate the power output by dividing work by time using

P = \frac{W}{t}

P = \frac{3{}500\text{ J}}{7\text{ s}} = 500\text{ W}

Power is defined as the time rate at which work is done or energy is transferred.
