By definition, the power is given by:

P = (W)/(t)
By definition, the power is given by:
Where,
W: Work done
t: time
Clearing the time we have:

t = (W)/(P)
Substituting values we have:

t = (1800000)/(15000)
Making the corresponding calculations we have:

t = 120s
Answer:
is needed for a 15,000 W engine to do 1,800,000 J of work about:

t = 120s
