प्रश्न
A girl of mass 50 kg runs up a flight of 40 steps in 20 seconds. If each step in 20 cm high, calculate the power developed by the girl. (g= 10 ms-2).
उत्तर
Given, mass = 50kg
Total height traveled = 40 x 20 cm = 800 cm = 8 m
g = 10ms-2
time taken = 20s
work done = mgh = 50 x 10 x 8 = 4000 J
power = `"work done"/"time taken" = 4000/20 = 200 "watt"`

A truck driver can load oil drums into the back of the truck by pushing them up a sloping plank, or by lifting them directly. Each drum has a mass of 80 kg, the plank is 3 m long, and the back of the truck is 0.8 m above the ground.
(i) How much force would be needed to lift a drum into the truck directly/without using the plank? (Take g = 10 m/s2)
(ii) How much energy would be required in lifting the drum into the truck without the plank?
(iii) If the force needed to push the drum up the plank is 300 N, why is this less than the answer to part (i)?
