Problem

A battery stores 1.8×1051.8\times10^{5} J of energy and powers an electric motor whose power output behaves as follows: the motor delivers a constant 2.0 kW for the first tt seconds, after which its power decreases linearly to zero over the next 10 s. If the battery is completely discharged by this operation, what is the value of tt? a) 90 s90\text{ s} b) 85 s85\text{ s} c) 75 s75\text{ s} d) 95 s95\text{ s}
