An engine pumps up 1 quintal of coal from a mine 100 m deep in 0.5 s. If its efficiency is 60%, power of the engine is (Take g = 10 m//s^2)

Answer»

330 kW
100 kW
200 kW
400 kW 

SOLUTION :Actual POWER = `W/t = (mgh)/(t) = (100 xx 10 xx 100)/(0.5)`
`= 2 xx 10^5 ` watt
Power REQUIRED = `("Actual power")/("EFFICIENCY") = (2 xx 10^(5))/((60)/100) = 330 kW`.
