Homework Statement
A 613.0 kg mass is placed on a forklift that can generate 950 W of power. What is the constant speed of the forlift while lifting this load?
Homework Equations
W = F * change in Displacement ( or (F)(change in displacement)(costheta))
W = mg * Change in displacement
P = W/t
Ekinetic = 1/2mv^2
Work is in joules, power is in Watts.
The Attempt at a Solution
950 W = W/t (I don't have time or displacement)
W = mg * change in displacement
W = (9.5*613 )* change in displacement(which I do not have)
W = 6007.4 N *change in displacement
change in displacement = vAverage * change in time
change in time = all include velocity, which I am looking for.
?
Ekinetic = 1/2mv^2
xJ = (613.0kg/2)v^2
xJ = 306.5v^2
?
I feel like I need displacement or time, but I'm given neither. :\
