\(\left(g=9.8 m / s ^2\right)\)

  1. A 19.6 W
  2. B 39.2 W
  3. C 19.6 kW
  4. D 39.2 kW
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 19.6 kW

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(C) 19.6 kW
Given \(m=1000 kg, h=20 m, t=10 s, g=9.8 m / s ^2\).
Work done by the crane is \(W=m g h\).
\(W=1000 \times 9.8 \times 20=196000 J\)
Power is the rate of doing work, \(P=\frac{W}{t}\).
\(P=\frac{196000}{10}=19600 W\)
\(P=19.6 kW .\)
