    A car of mass 1000 kg accelerates uniformly from rest to a velocity of 54 km/h in 5 s. The average power of the engine during this period in watt is (neglect friction)

    A)  2000 W

    B)                         22500 W             

    C)         5000 W

    D)         2250 W

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Velocity, \[v=\text{ }u+at\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[a=\frac{15-0}{5}=3m/{{s}^{2}}\] \[\left( \because v=54\,km/h\,\,=\frac{54\,\,\times \,\,5}{18}=15\,m/s \right)\] Hence, \[{{P}_{av}}=\frac{1}{2}Fv=\frac{1}{2}mav\] \[=\frac{1}{2}\times 1000\times 3\times 15=22500\,\,W\]
