Answer:

429.1 W

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

Weight of the student,F = 613 N

distance,s = 7 m

time,t = 10 s

Average power = ?

Work done is equal to force into distance

W = F.s

W = 613 x 7

W = 4291 J

Average power =
(W)/(t)

=
(4291)/(10)

= 429.1 W

The average Power extended by the student to over come gravity is equal to 429.1 W.
