Question 1

At an airport, an electric conveyor belt is used to lift luggage bags from a lower loading deck to a registration counter. All of the luggage bags have the same mass.

During a rush hour, the operators increase the speed of the conveyor belt so that more bags are lifted up to the counter in a given time.

How does this change affect the work done in lifting each bag and the useful power output of the conveyor's motor?

A

Work done in lifting each bag: increases; Useful power output of the motor: decreases

B

Work done in lifting each bag: increases; Useful power output of the motor: increases

C

Work done in lifting each bag: no change; Useful power output of the motor: decreases

D

Work done in lifting each bag: no change; Useful power output of the motor: increases
