1: An electrical heater is rated 1200 W. How much energy does it use in 10
hours? 2: If an electric appliance is rated 1000 W and is used for 2 hours. Calculate the work done in 2 hours. 3: A man of mass 62 kg sums up a stair case of 65 steps in 12 s. If height of each step is 20 cm, find his power 4: How is work done by a force measured? A porter lifts a luggage of 20 kg from the ground and puts it on his head 1.7 m above the ground. Find the work done by the porter on the luggage. (g = 10m/s2) 5: The velocity of a body moving in a straight line is increased by applying a constant force F, for some distance in the direction of motion. Prove that the increase in the kinetic energy of the body is equal to the work done by the force on the body 6 (a) Under what conditions work is said to be done? (b) A porter lifts a luggage of 1.5 kg from the ground and puts it on his head 1.5 m above the ground. Calculate the work done by him on the luggage. 7 Four persons jointly lift a 250 kg box to a height of 1 m and hold it. (i) Calculate the work done by the persons in lifting the box. (ii) How much work is done for just holding the box ? (iii) Why do they get tired while holding it ? (g = 10ms2) 8: A boy is pulling a cart by supplying a constant force of 8 N on a straight path of 20 m. On a round about of 10 m diameter he forgets the path and takes 1½ turns and then continues on the straight path for another 20 m. Find the net work done by the boy on the cart.
