COMEDK · Physics · 6. Work Power Energy

If \(120 \mathrm{~J}\) of work is done in \(2 \mathrm{~min}\) by a water pump, then the power of the pump is

  1. A \(14.4 \mathrm{~kW}\)
  2. B \(240 \mathrm{~W}\)
  3. C \(60 \mathrm{~W}\)
  4. D \(1 \mathrm{~W}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(1 \mathrm{~W}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, work done, \(W=120 \mathrm{~J}\) Time, \(t=2 \mathrm{~min}=2 \times 60=120 \mathrm{~s}\) \(\therefore\) Power \(=\frac{\text { Work done }}{\text { Time }}=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{120}{120}=1 \mathrm{~W}\)
