Answer:
The average power is calculated as 735.0 W
Solution:
As per the question:
Total mass, M = 1200 kg
Counter mass of the elevator, m = 950
Distance traveled by the elevator, d = 54 m
Time taken, t = 3 min = 180 s
Now,
To calculate the average power:
First, we find the force needed for lifting the weight:
Force, F = (M - m)g = 
Now, the work done by this force:
W = Fd = 
Average power is given as:
