The power of a water pump is $4 \,kW$. If $g = 10 \,m/s^2$,the amount of water it can raise in $1 \,minute$ to a height of $20 \,m$ is ........... $litres$.

$A$ car of mass $1200 \,kg$ (together with the driver) is moving with a constant acceleration of $2 \,m/s^2$. How much power does the engine generate at the instant when the speed reaches $20 \,m/s$ (in $\,W$)? (Assume that the coefficient of friction between the car and the road is $0.5$ and $g = 10 \,m/s^2$).
