Then the extra power needed to drivethe belt is..pls can anyone answer to the above question plsssssif the answer is correct i will mark the answer as brainlest answer...pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls................​

Answer»

Answer:

Velocity of BELT ( v ) = 1.5 m/s

Rate at which the MASS of gravel falls

= dm/dt = 5 kg/s

FORCE acting on the gravel

F = dp/dt = dm/dt (v) = 5 × 1.5 = 7.5 N

Power NEEDED

P = Fv = 7.5 × 1.5 = 11.25 W Ans...

Hope it HELPS you...
