Read more about the article Avinash can run at a speed of 8 ms-1 against the frictional force of 10 N, and Kapil can  move at a speed of 3 ms-1 against the frictional force of 25 N. Who is more powerful and why?

Avinash can run at a speed of 8 ms-1 against the frictional force of 10 N, and Kapil can move at a speed of 3 ms-1 against the frictional force of 25 N. Who is more powerful and why?

Power of Avinash PA = F A .v A = 10 x 8 = 80 W Power of Kapil PK . FK . vK = 25 x 3 = 75…

A rocket is moving up with a velocity v. If the velocity of this rocket is suddenly tripled, what will be the ratio of two kinetic energies?

Initial velocity = v, then final velocity, v’ = 3v Initial kinetic energy = Final kinetic energy (KE) = mv’2 = 2 = 9 (KE) initial: (KE) final = 1…

Give three examples when the object is not displaced in spite of a force acting on it.

Three examples when force being supplied and still there is no displacement are: (i) A man pushing a stationary truck. (ii) A man pushing a rigid wall. (iii) A boy…

Read more about the article Observe the diagrams I and II carefully. An object of mass m is lifted from A to B to  height h along path 1 and path 2. What would be the work done on the object in both the cases? Give reasons for your answer.

Observe the diagrams I and II carefully. An object of mass m is lifted from A to B to height h along path 1 and path 2. What would be the work done on the object in both the cases? Give reasons for your answer.

Work done in diagram I = mgh. Work done in diagram II = mgh. Work done by gravity depends on the differences in vertical heights of the initial and final…

What is power? How do you differentiate kilowatt from kilowatt hour?

Power is the rate of doing work. Kilowatt is the unit of power and kilowatt hour is the unit of energy.

Read more about the article Calculate the work done against the gravity.

Calculate the work done against the gravity.

Suppose a body of mass m is lifted vertically upwards through a distance h. In this case, the force required to lift the body will be equal to weight of…

Read more about the article What is the relationship between the commercial unit and SI unit of energy?

What is the relationship between the commercial unit and SI unit of energy?

We know that, 1kWh = 1kW x 1 h = 1000 W x 3600 s = 1000 Js-1 x 3600 s = 3600000 J ∴  1kWh = 3.6 x 106…

Read more about the article What is the commercial unit of energy?

What is the commercial unit of energy?

The commercial unit of energy is kilowatt hour [kWh]. 1 kWh is the energy used in one hour at the rate of 1000 Js-1 .
