Explanation / Answer

Given,

m = 57.6 kg ; a = 0.87 m ; b = 1.5 m ;

b)d = 1.95 cm ; D = 19 cm

sum of the torques acting must be zero.

-Fp x 0 - w x a + 2 x Fr x 1.5 = 0

Fr = 57.6 x 9.81 x 0.87/2 x 1.5 = 163.866 N

Hence, Fr = 163.866 N

c)h = 0.31 m

W = m g h = 57.6 x 9.81 x 0.31 = 175.18 J

Hence, W = 175.18 J

d)P = E/t

for 25 push ups, E' = nE = 25 x 175.18 = 4379.5

P = 4379.5/60 = 72.99 W

Hence, P = 72.99 W (=73 W)
