A block of mass 4 kg is pulled along a smooth inclined plane of inclination 30° with constant velocity 3 m/s as shown, power delivered by the force is Image related to
40 watt
20 watt
60 watt
30 watt

Solution:

As the object is not moving with constant speed net force on it is zero.

so F = mg sin 30 °= 4 × 10 × ½= 20 N

Power is Dot product of force and velocity. So, P = 20 × 3 = 60 W
