Answer:
30.16 hp
Explanation:
Given :
m= 1000 kg
v=15 m/s
t=5.0 s
The average power delivered by the engine can be determined by using the given formula
[tex]Average\ power\ =\ \frac{0.5*m*v^2\ }{t}[/tex]
where m=,mass, v=velocity and t=time
Now putting the value of m,v and t in the previous equation we get
[tex]Average \ power\ =\ \frac{0.5*1000*15*15}{5} \\Average \ power\ =\ 22,500\ w\\Average \ power\ =\frac{22,500}{746} \\Average \ power\ =30.16\ hp[/tex]
To convert w to hp we divide by 746
Therefore 30.16 hp is the answer.
