A kayaker paddles with a power output of 53.0 W to maintain a steady speed of 1.50 m/s.
Calculate the resistive force exerted by the water on the kayak.
If the kayaker increases her power output by a factor of 2.5, and the resistive force due to the water remains the same, by what factor does the kayaker's speed change?
