  1. A particle moves with a velocity v = 6î - 4ĵ - 3k̂ m/s under the influence of a constant force F = 20î - 15ĵ - 5k̂ N. The instantaneous power applied to the particle is
    1. 45 J/s
    2. 35 J/s
    3. 25 J/s
    4. 195 J/s
Correct Option: A

P = F . v = (20î - 15ĵ - 5k̂) . (6î - 4ĵ - 3k̂)
= 6 × 20 – 4 × 15 – 3 × 5 = 45 J/s
