What average mechanical power $($in W$)$ must a $79\mathrm{.}5$ kg mountain climber generate to climb to the summit of a hill of height $345$ m in $41\mathrm{.}0$ min? Note: Due to inefficiencies in converting chemical energy to mechanical energy, the amount calculated here is only a fraction of the power that must be produced by the climber's body.
