Solution

Work done against the gravitational force by both the persons is same = mgh

work done = 50x10x8 = 4000 J

Both have different power.

Work done per unit tine is known as power.

Power of A = Work done / time = 4000 / 20 = 200 watt

Power of B = Work done / time = 4000 / 25 = 160 watt

A has done more work in one second than B.
