The engine power of the helicopter is 125 kW, and its weight is 2000 kg. How long does it take

The engine power of the helicopter is 125 kW, and its weight is 2000 kg. How long does it take for a helicopter to rise to an altitude of 1.5 km?

Data: N (helicopter engine power) = 125 kW (125 * 10 ^ 3 W); m (helicopter mass) = 2000 kg; h (the height to which the helicopter will have to climb) = 1.5 km (1.5 * 10 ^ 3 m).

Constants: g (acceleration due to gravity) ≈ 10 m / s2.

The time it takes for a helicopter to climb to a given altitude is determined by the formula: N = A / t = ΔEp / t = m * g * h / t, whence t = m * g * h / N.

Let’s make the calculation: t = 2000 * 10 * 1.5 * 10 ^ 3 / (125 * 10 ^ 3) = 240 s.

Answer: The helicopter will take 240 seconds.
