A sports science class wants to compare the power output of different students.

They must choose one common method for the whole class to use. They decide to investigate a method where students run up a flight of stairs.

Plan an investigation to determine and compare the power output of each student using this method.

In your answer, you should:

  • State the measurements that must be taken and the equipment used to measure them.
  • Explain how these measurements are used to calculate the power output of each student, including the relevant equations.
  • Identify how to make the investigation a fair and reliable comparison.
