Problem

A motorcycle of mass 180 kg180\,\text{kg} starts from rest on a level road. The engine can maintain a constant mechanical power output of 9.0 kW9.0\,\text{kW}. Neglect all frictional and air-resistance forces. a. (i) Calculate the time required for the motorcycle to attain a speed of 30 m s−130\,\text{m\,s}^{-1}. b. (ii) Determine the kinetic energy gained by the motorcycle in the time found in part (i).
