To solve the problem of calculating the power expended by each girl while climbing, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the formula for power Power is defined as the work done per unit time. The formula for power (P) is given by: \[ P = \frac{W}{t} \] where \( W \) is the work done and \( t \) is the time taken. ### Step 2: Calculate the work done by each girl ...
