Given data:

* The amount of work done is W = 300 J.

* The time during which the work is done is t = 15 s.

Solution:

The power used in terms of the work done and time taken is,


P=(W)/(t)

Substituting the known values,


\begin{gathered} P=(300)/(15) \\ P=20\text{ watts} \end{gathered}

Thus, the power used in the given case is 20 watts.
