Best Answer

I assume you want to transport this on a train, or truck, or something like that. There is no simple relationship. Basically, the only power required to transport something at constant speed is the power required to overcome friction (otherwise, with no friction, zero power would be required to maintain the speed.) However, friction on the road or rails can vary; air resistance can vary depending on the shape of the train or truck, and even on the wind.
