    In order to calculate the work done on a body, we find the product of the force applied on the body and the displacement produced in the direction of the force. Mathematically:

    Work = Force * displacement

    Work = 2,500 * 30

    Work = 75,000 ft-lbs

    Power is the rate of work done, this is:

    Power = Work / time

    Power = 75,000 / 30

    Power = 2,500 ft-lbs/sec

    Work = 75,000 ft-lbs, Power = 2,500 ft-lbs/sec
