A 50 kg student climbs 3 m to the top of a set of stairs.
VashaNatasha [74]
1) PE=mgh
mass 50 kg; height 3; g 9.81
50×3×9.81=1471.5 J

2. The student is opposing gravity force so 
Fgrav=m×g
50 × 9.81= 490N
Work=force×displacement
490×3=1470J(this should always be the same as the potential energy)

3.Power=work×time
4410 W=1470×3

4. Greater than: power is dependent on work, work is dependent on force, force is dependent on weight,
