Answer:

25J

Step-by-step explanation:

power = work done ÷ time taken.

and work done = force applied × distance covered.

according to the question, the athlete lifts the weight of 100N upto 5m therefore;

100N × 5m = 500N/m

then onwards,

the work done (500 N/m) should be divided by the time taken to calculate the power,

500 ÷ 20s = 25J

is your answer.

hope this helped. :)
