Explanation:
In order to figure out how much it costs to drive the motor for 3 years, we must first figure out how many kW there are to the 40hp power of the motor, so we do a conversion:
Once we got how many kW there are to the 40Hp, we can now figure out how much electric power the motor is consuming, we can do that by using the efficiency of the motor, so we get:
Now we can figure out for how many hours the motor is going to be driven throughout the 3 years.
now that we got the number of hours the motor will be working, we can now find the number of kWh the motor consumes during the 3 years:
32.387kW*10,920hr=353,666.04kWh
So now we can figure out how much it will cost to drive the motor:
