Answer:

Work Done= 3150J

Power= 1.75W

Step-by-step explanation:

Work Done= Force x the distance travelled in the direction of the force (W= f x d)

Weight is a force, i think the qn. stated it wrongly, it should be 70N not 70kg.

Work Done= 70 x 45

=3150J

Power= Work Done/Time

=3150/(30x60)

*convert minutes to seconds since the S.I. unit of Power is joules/seconds(J/s) or watts(W)

=1.75W
