Calculate the power output in watts and horsepower of a shot-putter who takes 1.30 s to accelerate the 7.27-kg shot from rest to 16.0 m/s, while raising it 0.900 m. (do not include the power produced to accelerate his body.) shot putter at the dornoch highland gathering in 2007.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the shot, m = 7.27 kg

Time taken to accelerate, t = 1.3 s

It is shot from rest to 16 m/s and it raises to a height of 0.9 m. We need to find the power output of the shot-putter. It is given by :

Energy = kinetic energy + potential energy

E = 994.68 J

Power,

P = 765.13 Watts

We know that, 1 horse power = 745.7 watts

Or P = 1.02 horse power

Hence, this is the required solution.

the earths atmosphere is made up of nitrogen and oxygen. solids can turn into gasses through a process called sublimation. sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas phase, without passing through the intermediate liquid phase.
