Applications of power :
4)The car moves on a rough horizontal road with a constant speed 'V' then the instaneous power of engine is
P = F.V (V constant)
But F = f
P = fV (Here f = frictional force on rough horizontal surface) P =\(\mu\) mg. V
5)A body of mass 'm' is initially at rest. By the application of constant force its velocity changes to "V0" in time ' t0' then
\(\begin{gathered}
v = u + at \hfill \\
{v_0} = a{t_0} \hfill \\
\end{gathered} \)
acceleration of the body is \(a\, = \,\frac{{{v_0}}}{{{t_0}}}\)
a)Find instantaneous power at an instant of time 't' is
P = F.V = (ma) (at) = m a2 t
\({P_{\operatorname{in} st}} = m{\left( {\frac{{{v_0}}}{{{t_0}}}} \right)^2}t\)
b)Average power during the time 't' is
Pav = \(\frac{1}{2}.{p_{inst}}\,\) ;
