Answer:

Power output, P = 3800 watts

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Work done by the lawnmover engine, W = 4560000 J

Time taken, t = 20 min = 1200 sec

We have to find the power output of the engine. Power of an engine is given by work done per unit time taken i.e.


P=(W)/(t)


P=(4560000\ J)/(1200\ s)

P = 3800 Watts

Hence, the power output of the engine is 3800 watts.
