Answer:
Power = 2.45Kw or 2450 Watts.
Explanation:
<u>Given the following data;</u>
Mass, m = 250kg
Height, h = 2m
Time, t = 2secs
We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8m/s²
Power can be defined as the energy required to do work per unit time.
Mathematically, it is given by the formula;
But Energy = mgh
Substituting into the equation, we have
Power = 2450 Watts
To convert to kilowatt (Kw), we would divide by 1000
Power = 2450/1000
Power = 2.45Kw.
Therefore, the average power output of the weightlifter is 2.45 Kilowatts.
