A power P is required to do work W in a time interval T. What power is required to do work 3W in a time interval 5T? (a) 3P (b) 5P (c) 3P/5 (a) P (e) 5P/3

Respuesta :

Answer:

(c) 3P/5

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the power is:

[tex]P=\frac{W}{T}[/tex]

where

W is the work done

T is the time required for the work to be done

In the second part of the problem, we have

Work done: 3W

Time interval: 5T

So the power required is

[tex]P=\frac{3W}{5T}=\frac{3}{5}\frac{W}{T}=\frac{3}{5}P[/tex]
