Thanks! I guess in this case it would indeed be something resisting his motion. Would that change the equation? Thanks again!

Thanks, Cwatters! So if Power = FrictionForce * Distance/Time, then Time = (FrictionForce * Distance) / Power. Meaning if I keep everything else fix, then a) adding distance, increases time, b) reducing Power, increases time and finally c) adding Friction, increases time! I can work with that...

Hi, first of all sorry... I know (close to) absolutely nothing about physics except from what I remember from school a looong time ago... :-). So, my question might sound a bit silly here. But thanks a lot for taking you time already! Homework Statement In retail business there is some...
