Answer: 9130 joules

Step-by-step explanation:

Workdone by wheelbarrow = ?

Time = 11 seconds

Power = 830 watts

Recall that power is the rate of doing work. Thus, power is workdone divided by time taken.

i.e Power = (workdone/time)

830 watts = Workdone / 11 seconds

Workdone = 830 watts x 11 seconds

Workdone = 9130 joules

Thus, 9130 joules of work is required to get the wheelbarrow across the yard.
