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

well if you use the formula p=(F)(D)/(T) so P=(248.711271j)(54.28m)/(90s) it adds back to 150w so that works out, and then i just divided 150/550ftlb/s i get .27 hp, which when i type in 150w into horsepower in google it comes out with .2 so its close enough... but im pretty sure im right...not 100% though
