Answer:

1050.651 W

Explanation:

m = Mass of bench press = 102 kg

h = Height of lift = 1.47 m

t = Time taken = 14 seconds

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

The work done is

[tex]W=mgh\\\Rightarrow W=102\times 9.81\times 1.47\\\Rightarrow W=1470.9114\ J[/tex]

For 10 times

[tex]W=10\times 1470.9114\\\Rightarrow W=14709.114\ J[/tex]

Power is given by

[tex]P=\dfrac{W}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{14709.114}{14}\\\Rightarrow P=1050.651\ W[/tex]

The power is 1050.651 W
