A mover slides a refrigerator weighing 650 N at a constant velocity across the floor
a distance of 8.1 m. The force of friction between the refrigerator and the floor is
230 N. If the work was done in 55 seconds, what is the power of the mover?

Given :

A mover slides a refrigerator weighing 650 N at a constant velocity across the floor a distance of 8.1 m.

The force of friction between the refrigerator and the floor is 230 N.

To Find :

How much work has been performed by the mover on the refrigerator.

Solution :

Since, refrigerator is moving with constant velocity.

So, force applied by the mover is also 230 N ( equal to force of friction ).

Now, work done in order to move the refrigerator is :

Hence, this is the required solution.
