How is the power related to the speed at which a body can be lifted? How many kilograms will a man working at the power of $100\ W$, be able to lift at constant speed of $1\ m s^{-1}$ vertically? $(g=10\ ms^{-2})$
Relation between power and speed:
Power, $P=\frac{work\ done}{time}$
$=\frac{mgh}{t}$ [$m\rightarrow mass,\ h\rightarrow height,\ t\rightarrow time,\ g\rightarrow gravity$]
$=mg\frac{h}{t}$
$=mgv$ [$\frac{h}{t}=speed(v)$]
As given, Power $P=100\ W$
Gravitational acceleration $g=10\ ms^{-2}$
Speed at which the object to be uplifted $v=1\ ms^{-1}$
Let $m$ be the mass of the object. We have to find $m=?$
On using $P=mgv$
$100=m\times10\times1$
Or $10m=100$
Or $m=\frac{100}{10}\ kg$
Or $m=10\ kg$
Therefore, the man can be able to lift $10\ kg$ mass at the given speed.
