If a pump is capable of lifting 5000kg of water through a vertical height of 60m in 15 min, the power of the pump is
- 2.2.5 x 10 5js-1
- 2.5 x 104js-1
-
3.3 x 103js-1
- 3.3 x 102js-1
The correct answer is: C
Explanation
P = \(\frac{mgh}{t}\)P = \(\frac{5000 \times 10 \times 60}{(15 \times 60)s}\)
P = 3333.3333
P = 3.3 x 103js-1
