Answer:

Power = 24.41Watts

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

Power output = Force * distance/Time

Given

Force = 120lb

Distance = 9inches

Time = 5sec

Since

1lb = 4.4482216153 N

120lb = 120 * 4.4482216153

120lb = 533.787N

9in to meters

9in = 0.0254*9

9in = 0.2286N

Power = 533.787*0.2286/5

Power = 24.41Watts
