Alright i SUCK at physics and need some help with a few problems concerning work-energy-momentum, im working through a worksheet and will be posting more problems as i get to them. but for now here is one i seem to be stuck on, don't make fun of my stupidness if this seems easy to some of you.
BTW my teacher write his own problems so thats why the questions are a little different Jake "the Big-Man" Wickstrom rolls a double-wide old-school Toro Lawnmower across Mrs. Omalley's lawn with a force of 300N in the direction of the stainless steel handle, which forms an agle of 34.0 degrees with the ground (is at an angle of 34.0 degrees above the horizon). A) If Jake produces 150Watts of power for 90.0 seconds, what distance is the mower pushed in meters and in feet? B) How much horespower does Jake "the Big-Man" Wickstrom produce? -------------------- A work in (extremely slow) progress

The question kind of makes no sense. Jake is a person, and he produces 150watts?
Only thing I can make out is that you have a velocity of 300nm because you have acceleration and direction, and I dont see how the angle of the handle would make any difference . This post has been edited by lagos: Feb 17, 2009 - 8:37 PM -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
