If a man moves a large box that weighs 10 Newtons 20 meters in 30 seconds, how much power was used?

10 N x 20 m = 200 J


200 J/30 seconds = 6.7 Watts

On a recent adventure trip, Anita Break went rock-climbing. Anita was able to steadily lift her 80.0- kg body 20.0 meters in 100 seconds. Determine Anita 's power rating during this portion of the climb.

Anita needs to apply a force that is equal to her weight in order to elevate her body a distance of 20.0 m. This force is equal to (80 kg)•(9.8 m/s2) = 784 N. 

Work = F x d = (784 N) x (20.0 m) = 15680 J. 

Power = W/t = (15680 J)/(100 s) = 157 Watts
