An escalator that takes 1.2 MJ every minute has a power output of 1200 kW.
An escalator used to lift people up from one floor to another, exerts a work (w) of 1.2 MJ in 1 minute (t).
In physics, power (P) is the amount of energy (w) transferred or converted per unit time (t).
We can convert 1.2 × 10⁶ W to kW using the conversion factor 1 kW = 1000 W.
An escalator that takes 1.2 MJ every minute has a power output of 1200 kW.

Answer:
The mass of the block, M =T/(3a +g) Kg
Explanation:
Given,
The upward acceleration of the block a = 3a
The constant force acting on the block, F₀ = Ma = 3Ma
The mass of the block, M = ?
In an Atwood's machine, the upward force of the block is given by the relation
Ma = T - Mg
M x 3a = T - Ma
3Ma + Mg = T
M = T/(3a +g) Kg
Where 'T' is the tension of the string.
Hence, the mass of the block in Atwood's machine is, M = T/(3a +g) Kg
