Answer:
224236.76 W
Explanation:
Power: This can be defined as the rate of change of energy. The S.I unit of power is Watt(W).
From the question,
P = E/t ......................... Equation 1
Where P = power, E = Energy or work, t = time.
But,
E = Wt×d.................. Equation 2
Where Wt = Total weight of the passengers, d = distance.
Substitute equation 2 into equation 1
P = (Wt×d)/t.............. Equation 3
Given: Wt = 590×150 =88500 N, d = 244 m, t = 96.3 s.
Substitute into equation 3
P = (88500×244)/96.3
P = 224236.76 W
