The reason why there is a difference between free-fall acceleration is a centrifugal force.
I attached a diagram that shows how this force aligns with the force of gravity.
From the diagram we can see that:
Where g' is the free-fall acceleration when there is no centrifugal force, r is the radius of the planet, and w is angular frequency of planet's rotation.
is the latitude.
We can calculate g' and wr^2 from the given conditions in the problem.
Our final equation is:
Colatitude is:

The answer is:
The power developed is 500 W ( to the nearest Watt)
Power(P) is the rate at which work is done. Work done (W) is the product of the force applied on the object and the displacement (s) made by the point of application of the force.
Therefore,
Substitute the given values of force , displacement and time
Thus the Power can be rounded off to the nearest value of 500 W
