A ski lift carries skiers along a \(695 \, \text{m}\) slope inclined at \(34^\circ\). To lift a single rider, it is necessary to move \(72 \, \text{kg}\) of mass to the top of the lift. Under maximum load conditions, five riders per minute arrive at the top. If \(65\%\) of the energy supplied by the motor goes to overcoming friction, what average power must the motor supply?
