Work W = F S Cos θ
Where θ = angle between force and displacement
Power
Power is defined as the rate of doing work. It is
scalar quantity. P = W/t
where P = Power
W = work done
t = time taken
Or P = E/t
where P = Power
E = energy consumed
t = time taken
The S.I unit of power is watt (W). One watt is
the power of an appliance which does work at the
rate of 1 joule per second.
1 watt = 1 joule/ 1 second
Or 1W = 1 J/ 1 s
1 KW = 103 watt
1 MW = 106 watt
- Horse power is another unit of power which is
equal to 746 watt i.e. 1 horse power is equal to
about 0.75 kilowatt (0.75 KW).
1 watt second = 1 watt x 1 second

Practice questions :
1.A bullet of mass 0.012 kg and horizontal speed 70 m/s
strikes a block of wood of mass 0.4 kg and instantly
comes to rest with respect to the block. The block is
suspended from the ceiling by means of thin wires.
Calculate the height to which the block rises. Also,
estimate the amount of heat produced in the block.
2.The bob of a pendulum is released from a horizontal
position. If the length of the pendulum is 1.5 m,what is the
speed with which the bob arrives at the lowermost point,
given that it dissipated 5% of its initial energy against air
resistance ?
3. A pump on the ground floor of a building can pump up
water to fill a tank of volume 30 m3 in 15 min. If the tank is
40 m above the ground, and the efficiency of the pump is
30%,how much electric power is consumed by the pump ?
4. A body is initially at rest. It undergoes one-dimensional
motion with constant acceleration. The power delivered to
it at time t is proportional to
(i) t1/2 (ii) t (iii) t3/2 (iv) t2
5. A body is moving unidirectionally under the influence of
a source of constant power.
Its displacement in time t
is proportional to
(i) t1/2 (ii) t (iii) t3/2 (iv) t2
