Find out power of an engine which can extract coal at a rate of 5×10^5 kg/hour from a 200 m deep mine |
|
Answer» Answer: this is the correct answer Explanation: Calculate the power of an engine required to lift 100000 KG of coal per hour from a mine 360m deep. Answer-----> Mass(m) = 100000 kg = 5*10^5 kg Height (h) = 200m Acceleration DUE to gravity = 10 m/s^2 Time(t) = 1 hour = 3600 s Then, P.E = mgh = 5*10^5 * 10 * 360 J Work done = P.E = 5*10^5 * 10 * 360 J We know, Power = Work done / Time = 5*10^5 x 10 x 360/3600 =5* 10^5 watt.
