View PoliciesCurrent Attempt in ProgressYou are working out on a rowing machine. Each time you pull the rowing bar (which simulates the oars) toward you, it moves a distance of 0.880 m in a time of 1.70 s. The readout on the display indicates that the average power you are producing is 101 W. What is themagnitude of the force that you exert on the handle?

Answer :

Based on the data, you have the distance, power, and time, we need a formula to relate this information with the force

[tex]\begin{gathered} Power=\frac{Energy}{time} \\ P=\frac{F\cdot d}{t} \end{gathered}[/tex]

With this formula you have the relation between the information and the force, now we have to find the value of the force

[tex]F=\frac{P\cdot t}{d}=\frac{101W\cdot0.88m}{1.7s}=52.28N[/tex]
