The weight of the box is irrelevant. The only thing that matters is how hard you push on it.

Since it's the only number given, let's assume that the 10 Newtons is the force you applied to the box,
and that by applying that force to the box, you were able to move it 5 meters in 2 seconds.

The work you did is [ force x distance ] = 10 x 5 = 50 joules.

The power is [ energy / time ] = 50/2 = 25 joules per second = 25 watts.

If it takes 600 N of force to move a stalled truck 30 meters and you do it in 15 seconds what is your power?

The work required to move the truck is 600 N (600 kg-m/sec2) times 30 meters = 18000 joules. If this is done in 15 seconds, the average power was 1200 watts (kg-m2/sec3).

It takes the person 5 seconds to move 10 meters What is the power output?

The person's speed is 2 meters per second. The power required for him to accomplish that depends on his weight, on his efficiency of movement, on whether he's moving horizontally or vertically, etc., all of which the question neglects to specify.
