A person holds a 25 kg (250 newton) bag of cement over his head and moves it a distance of 10 m, taking 2 minutes, while another person carries it on a wheelbarrow that same distance, taking 1 minute. Who does more work ? What is the power of each person?

Explanation:

Assuming the 10 m distance is the vertical displacement, the work done by both people is the same.

Work = force × distance

W = (250 N) (10 m)

W = 2500 J

The power of the first person is:

Power = work / time

P = 2500 J / 120 s

P = 20.83 W

The power of the second person is:

P = 2500 J / 60 s

P = 41.67 W
