Question

A 68 kg student runs up a flight of stairs that is 7 m high in 9 seconds. Calculate

how much power is used.

Answer 1

Power = Work/time
Work= energy
Potential energy =mxgxh
Power=mxgxh/t
Power=68x10x7/9
Power=529 watts

Answer 2

Answer:4760/9 watts

Step-by-step explanation:

mass(m)=68kg g=10m/s^2 height(h)=7m time(t)=9seconds

Power=(m x g x h)/t

Power=(68 x 10 x 7)/9

Power=4760/9 watts
