Chapter 9, Problem 81PQ
On a movie set, an alien spacecraft is to be lifted to a height of 30.0 m for use in a scene. The 200.0-kg spacecraft is attached by ropes to a massless pulley on a crane, and four members of the film’s construction crew lift the prop at constant speed by delivering 185 W of power each. If 20.0% of the mechanical energy delivered to the pulley is lost to friction, what is the time interval required to lift the spacecraft to the specified height?
