Puterea dezvoltată de un delfin, care înoată cu viteza de 12km/h, este 100kW. Să se determine :a) forța de rezistență pe care apa o opune înaintării delfinului. b) lucrul mecanic efectuat de delfin în 20 minute.

Domain eukarya; kingdom plantae should be the answer.

W= fd
where f is an applied force and d is the distance over which it is applied. when a parachuting skydiver is at constant velocity, he is experiencing "terminal velocity", the point at which his acceleration down is canceled out by air resistance. that means that the resisting force of the air is equal to his weight, but in the opposite direction. with this, we can solve for the work done by the force.
w = fd
w = (92.0)(9.81 m/s^2) (325)
w= 2.93 x 10^5 j
the value for work in this case is positive because it is pushing up on the skydiver, who has a downward force of gravity.
therefore the answer is 2.93 x 10^5 j
