Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 9.56 Power and Rate of Energy Transfer skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

A hydroelectric model transfers 4800 J in 16 s, while a turbine model transfers 4200 J in 12 s. Which comparison is correct?

AThe hydroelectric model has greater power by 50 W.

BThe turbine model has greater power by 50 W.

CThe models have equal power.

DThe turbine model has greater power by 300 W.

Solution & Explanation:The hydroelectric model has 4800/16 = 300 W. The turbine model has 4200/12 = 350 W, so the turbine model is greater by 50 W.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

A solar model transfers 2.4 kJ in 8 s, while a wind-turbine model transfers 3.6 kJ in 12 s. Which comparison is correct?

AThe wind-turbine model has greater average power.

BThe wind-turbine model has three times the power.

CThey have equal average power.

DThe solar model has greater average power.

Solution & Explanation:Solar power is 2400/8 = 300 W. Wind-turbine power is 3600/12 = 300 W, so they are equal.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A 500 W motor runs for 8 s. How long must a 200 W motor run to transfer the same amount of energy?

A32 s

B3.2 s

C20 s

D12 s

Solution & Explanation:The 500 W motor transfers 500 x 8 = 4000 J. Time for the 200 W motor is 4000/200 = 20 s.
