The minimum power required to lift a mass of 50 kg to a vertical height of 8 m in 10 s is : (Assume g = 10 m/s²)

  1. A.400 W✓ Correct
  2. B.40 W
  3. C.50 W
  4. D.500 W

Explanation

Work done in lifting the mass = mgh = 50 × 10 × 8 = 4000 J. Power = Work/Time = 4000/10 = 400 W. Hence the minimum power required is 400 W.
