Solution

One watt is the power of an agent which does work at the rate of $1 J s^{- 1}$
Total Power $= 150 \times 500 = 7.5 \times 10^{4} W$
$P o w e r = F o r c e \times v e l o c i t y$
$F o r c e = \frac{P o w e r}{v e l o c i t y} = \frac{7.5 \times 10^{4}}{20} = 3.75 \times 10^{3} N$
$F o r c e = 3750 N$
