- A heavy box is pulled by a rope on a horizontal surface. (a) Assume that there is no frictional force between the box and the surface. If the tension force in the rope is 240 N and the box moves by the distance of 5.6 m in 2.9 s, what is the power output of the work done by the tension force? (b) Assume that the surface is rough and there is frictional force between the box and the surface. If the box moves at the constant speed of 0.31 m/s when the tension force is 240 N, what is the power output of the work done by the tension force?arrow_forwardA 2,000-kg pile driver is used to drive a steel I-beam into the ground. The pile driver falls 3.00 m before coming into contact with the top of the beam, and it drives the beam 14.6 cm farther into the ground as it comes to rest. Using energy considerations, calculate the average force the beam exerts on the pile driver while the pile driver is brought to rest.arrow_forwardA 2.2 kg object is initially moving at 5.78 m/s.

- A 3.30-kN piano is lifted by three workers at a constant speed to an apartment 27.3 m above the street using a pulley system fastened to the roof of the building. Each worker is able to deliver 141 W of power, and the pulley system is 75.0% efficient (so that 25.0% of the mechanical energy is lost due to friction in the pulley). Neglecting the mass of the pulley, find the time required to lift the piano from the street to the apartment. minarrow_forwardA person in good physical condition can put out 100 W of useful power for several hours at a stretch, perhaps by pedaling a mechanism that drives an electric generator.
