Answer:

E. 12P

Step-by-step explanation:

The power can be calculated as work divided by time, so the first force produces power P and it is equal to:


P=(W)/(T)

If we have a second force that produces power P₂, where the work is six times W and the time is half time T, we get:


P_2=(6W)/((T)/(2))=(6W\cdot2)/(T)=12(W)/(T)

Since W/T = P, we get that


P_2=12P

Therefore, the power produce by a force that does six times as much work in half as much time is 12P.
