physics question help

if a 20kg kettle is given 35W in the same time it takes Johnny to walk up the stairs, at which speed does the kettle fly when i throw it at a wall in frustration, and how far away is the wall of which i throw it at, in micrometres?

i would say approx. 1.3m/s if the kettle is thrown at a right angle to the wall and the wall is about 69 meters away. :smile:

When questions like this come up tomorrow instead of stuff from the spec 😂 :facepalm:

i got 17.7m/s
assuming Johnny is fat and takes 90s to walk up the stairs
whatever we only lose 25 marks if that question came up

yeah i swear they are, even them giving us those overdone english literature questions

also i revamped the question to be more realistic to what might actually come up
A kettle of 20kg is given 35W in the same time it takes Shakira to walk up a flight of 2m stairs at the speed of 2m/s. I pick up the kettle to make tea, then drop it in surprise when i see spiderman in the doorway. Assuming i dropped it at shoulder-height and the ratio height of feet>shoulder:shoulder>head is 11:3, how tall am I?
