The total work is (9000 x 18) = 162,000 foot-lbs.
To get it done in 60 seconds requires power at the rate of (162,000 / 60) = 2,700 ft-lbs/sec.

How do you calculate pounds feet and seconds into horsepower?
1 horsepower = 550 foot-pounds per second
How much horsepower is needed to lift 220 lbs 30 inches in 10 seconds?
1 horsepower = 550 foot-pounds per second 30 inches = 2.5 feet (2.5) x (220)/10 = 550 foot pounds per 10 seconds = 1/10th of a horsepower.
How do you determine feet per second?
distance travelled (feet) / time taken (seconds)
What is the unit rate for meters per second if a car travels 399 meters in 19 seconds?
Just divide the distance (in meters) by the time (in seconds).
What is the speed in meters per second?
meters is the distance traveled per unit time per second. Mileage = meters Time = seconds
Is distance covered during nth second more than the distance covered in n seconds?
Distance covered in nth second means the distance covered in that particular second . It cannot be more than the distance covered in n seconds which means the distance covered in a total time of n seconds.
Why do we measure acceleration in squared seconds as opposed to just seconds?
Speed, or velocity, is measured in distance per second; it is the rate of change of distance with time.Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time, or distance per second per second, which is distance per seconds squared,
How do you cancel out the seconds in meter per second?
Multiply by a value in seconds, that way you find out the distance. The distance will be in metres which will be travelled in a certain amount of seconds
How much distance is a second?
Distance is a unit of distance, while seconds are units of time. The two are unrelated.
How many seconds is 14890 light seconds?
A light second is a unit of distance, not a unit of time.
How do you calculate pounds feet and seconds into horsepower?
1 horsepower = 550 foot-pounds per second
What is the speed if the distance is 1000m and the time is 100 seconds?
Speed = distance/Time = 1000 metres/100 seconds = 10 metres per second.
How do you convert seconds to meters per second?
This question doesn't make a lot of sense. Maybe something is missing? To convert seconds to metres per second you would need to divide the metres given by the number of seconds used. If all you have is seconds, and no distance, then you are stuck. Metres per second is a measure of speed and seconds is a measure of time. Speed=distance/time. So divide your metres by your seconds to get metres per second.
How many micro seconds are needed to make one second?
