A forklift was used to lift a 750 kg. oil drum 18 m straight up into the air to store on a shelf. If it does it in 28 seconds, Calculate the work and power exerted by the forklift. W= J

P= watts

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of forklift  = 750kg

Height of lift  = 18m

Time taken  = 28s

Unknown:

Work done = ?

Power = ?

Solution;

 The work done by the forklift is given as:

  Work done = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

   Work done  = 750 x 9.8 x 18  = 132300J

Power is the rate at which work is done;

      Power  =  

 Insert the parameters and solve;

    Power  =  = 4725W

the journeys of marquette, joliet and la salle a) new france expand.

all three of these explorers explored the midwest and the area around the great lakes, which they subsequently claimed for france.

this was a big portion of territory and expanded new france which before then only consisted of quebec province in northeastern canada
