Who has the most power?

• Ms Criza who encodes her observation tools using 12000J of work in 20 minutes.

• Sir Pau who studies his 5 lessons for the next classes in 15 minutes.

• Mrs Punzalan who used 50N force to inoculate mushrooms at a speed of 2m/s.

• Mrs Masalunga who watches her learners while taking their quiz in 30 minutes.

A 100 N force is applied to move an object a horizontal distance of 5 meters at constant speed in 10 seconds. How much power is done?

• 50J

• 50W

• 500J

• 500W

Which statement illustrates work done?

• A weightlifter holds a barbell above her head.

• A teacher applies a force to a wall and becomes exhausted.

• A rolling marble hits a note card and moves it across a table.

• A waiter carries a tray full of meals across a dining room at a constant speed.

A weightlifter holds a 100 kg barbell above her head. Is work done?

• Yes because there is a force applied to the barbell and the force causes a displacement of the barbell.

• Yes because there is an upward force applied to the barbell and the barbell moves vertically.

• No because no displacement occurred.

• No because there is no force applied.

What is the energy possessed by the cart?

• potential energy

• kinetic energy

• mostly potential

• mostly kinetic
