A 1.00 x 109 kg object is raised vertically at a
constant velocity of 4.00 m/s by a crane. What
is the power output of the crane?

Answer:

P = 3.92 10¹⁰ W

Explanation:

The power is data by the expression

         P = W / t

the work of a force is

         W = F. y

the bold ones represent vectors. In this case the displacement is vertical upwards and the vertical forces upwards, therefore the angle is zero and the cos 0 = 1

          W = F y

we substitute

          P = F y / t

          P = F v

as the body rises at constant speed the acceleration is zero and from the equilibrium condition

            F -W = 0

            F = mg

we substitute

           P = m g v

let's calculate

           P 1.00 10⁹ 9.8  4

           P = 3.92 10¹⁰ W
