Explanation / Answer

acceleration a=F/m=4.7/14=0.336 m/s2 work done by force=gained in kinetic energy W=m*v2/2=m/2*(a*t)2 t=1 s=> W=0.789J t=2s => W=3.156J t=3s => W=7.1J work done in 1st second: 0.789 J 2nd: 3.156 -0.789=2.367 J 3rd: 7.1- 3.156=3.944J (d) the instantaneous power due to the force power=force*velocity=4.7*a*3=4.73 W t=1 s=> W=0.789J t=2s => W=3.156J t=3s => W=7.1J work done in 1st second: 0.789 J 2nd: 3.156 -0.789=2.367 J 3rd: 7.1- 3.156=3.944J (d) the instantaneous power due to the force power=force*velocity=4.7*a*3=4.73 W
