SHOW ADEQUATE WORKINGS IN THIS SECTION 12. Wale and Lekan of 55kg and 60kg respectively ran a race of 200m.

i. Calculate their work done in KJ

ii. If wale finished the race in 25secs while Lekan finished in 30secs, calculate their

power and who is more powerful out of these two. ( g = 10m/secs)

13. A machine has a velocity ratio of 5 and is 800

/0 efficient. If the machine is carrying a load

of 200kg, what will be effort applied?

Please help me answer anyone that you understand

12 i. The work done by Wale = 107.910 kJ

The work done by Lekan = 117.720 kJ

Total work done = 225.36 kJ

ii. Wale's power =  4.3164 kW

Lekan's power = 3.924 kW

Wale has more power and is more powerful than Lekan

13. 313.92 N

Explanation:

i. The work done, W = Force, F × Distance moved by the force, D

The given parameters are

The mass of Wale = 55 kg

The mass of Lekan = 60 kg

The acceleration due to gravity, g =9.81 m/s²

The motion force of Wale and Lekan are;

Motion force of Wale = 9.81 × 55 = 539.55 N

Motion force of Lekan = 9.81 × 60 = 588.6 N

The work done by Wale = 539.55 × 200 = 107910 J = 107.910 kJ

The work done by Lekan= 588.6 × 200 = 117720 J = 117.720 kJ

107910 + 117720 =225630 J = 225.36 kJ

ii. Power = Work done/time

Wale finished the race in 25 s, therefore, his power = 107910/25 = 4316.4 W

Lekan finished the race in 30 s, therefore, his power = 117720/30 = 3924 W

Wale has more power and is more powerful than Lekan

13. The velocity ratio = 5

V. R. = Distance moved by effort/(Distance moved by load)

Efficiency = 80%

Work done by effort = x

Work done by machine = Efficiency × Work done by effort  = 0.8 × x

Distance moved by effort, E = V. R. × Distance moved by load, D = 5 × D

Work done by effort = Force × Distance moved = 200×9.81× E

Work done by effort = 1962×E = 1962×E = 1962×5×D

Work done by machine = 1962 × D, when D = 1, we have;

0.8 × 1962×1 = 1569.6 J

Work done by effort = Force × Distance moved

Work done by effort = Force × 5×D = Force × 5 (D = 1)

From the principle of conservation of energy, we have;

Energy is neither created nor destroyed

Therefore

Work done by effort = Force × 5 = 1569.6 J

Force = 1569.6 /5 = 313.92 N.
