Answer:

Power =  50204 [watts]

Explanation:

We know that the power is defined by the following expression:

Power = Work/time

where:

Power [watts]

time [seconds]

The work done will be the following:

Work = Force * distance [Joules]

Force[Newtons]

distance[meters]

Force = mass* gravity

Force=290 [kg]*9.81[m/s^2] =2844.9[N]

Work = 2844.9[N]*300[m] = 853470[J]

Therefore

Power = 853470 / 17 = 50204 [watts]
