1. What is the formula for calculating: A) Velocity
B) Power
What are the units for velocity? What is the unit for power?
The formula for velocity is displacement divided by time (d/t).
The formula for power is work divided by time (w/t).
The unit for velocity is meters per second (m/s).
The unit for power is watts (W).
2. As recorded on your data sheet, what was the highest Average Velocity
produced with the light weight during a repetition? What was the highest Average Velocity
produced with the heavy weight during a repetition? The highest average velocity with the light weight was 0.82 m/s
on
the fourth repetition.
The highest average velocity with the heavy weight was 0.92 m/s
on
the fifth repetition. 3. As recorded on your data sheet, what was the highest Average power
produced with the light weight during a repetition? What was the
highest Average power
produced with the heavy weight during a repetition? The highest average power with the light weight was 36 W
on the fifth
repetition.
The highest average power with the heavy weight was 72 W
on the
fourth repetition.
