Problem

The work done by a constant force on a trolley increases uniformly from 0 J0\,\text{J} at t=0 st = 0\,\text{s} to 36 J36\,\text{J} at t=6 st = 6\,\text{s}. After this, the work remains unchanged up to t=10 st = 10\,\text{s}. (i) Calculate the power developed during the first 6 s6\,\text{s}. (ii) What is the power in the interval 6 s6\,\text{s} to 10 s10\,\text{s}?
