Pedal Power A person in good physical condition can put out 95 W of useful power for several hours at a stretch, perhaps by pedaling a mechanism that drives an electric generator. Neglecting any problems of generator efficiency and practical considerations such as resting time: How many people would it take to run a 4.64–kW electric clothes dryer?

Respuesta :

Answer:

48 people would it take to run a 4.64 kW electric clothes dryer.

Explanation:

Given:

Pedal power A [tex]W_{1} = 95[/tex] W

Electric clothes dryer power [tex]W_{2} = 4640[/tex] W

For finding the number of person [tex]n[/tex] equals :

   [tex]n = \frac{W_{2} }{W_{1} }[/tex]

   [tex]n = \frac{4640}{95}[/tex]

   [tex]n = 48.84[/tex]

Therefore, 48 people would it take to run a 4.64 kW electric clothes dryer.
