Please find below the solution to the asked query :
We know that,
power (P) = work done (or energy) / time
here work done = potential energy = m g h
and time, t = 60 s
so,
P = 5000 W
g = 10 m/s2
h = 20 m
the amount of water lifted is given by,
m = P t / g h = (5000 x 60) / (10 x 20)
or
m = 1500 kg
Hope this would clear your doubt about the topic.
