By definition, the power is:


P=FvP = Fv

where v=2m5s=25m/sv = \dfrac{2m}{5s} = \dfrac{2}{5}m/s is the speed of anchor and F=mg=20kg9.81m/s2=196.2NF = mg = 20kg\cdot 9.81m/s^2 = 196.2N is the force applied to it. Thus, obtain:


P=Fv=25196.2=78.48WP = Fv = \dfrac{2}{5}\cdot 196.2 = 78.48W

Answer. 78.48 W.
