Answer:

20.4375 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Wattage = Work / time

Work = f * d

F = mass * acceleration

mass = 5000 kg

acceleration = force of gravity

acceleration = 9.81

Force = 5000 * 9.81

Force = 49050 N

Work = F * d

d = 2.5

Work = 49050 * 2.5

Work = 122625 Joules

Wattage = Work / time

time = work / wattage

wattage = 6000 watts

time = 122625 / 6000

time = 20.4375 seconds.
