An elevator motor in a high-rise building can do 3500 kJ of work in 5 min. Find the power developed by the motor. Explain if you
Ilya [14]

Answer:

P = 11666.6 W

Explanation:

Given that,

Work done by the motor, W = 3500 kJ

Time, t = 5 min = 300 s

We need to find the power developed by the motor. Power developed is given by :

P=\dfrac{E}{t}\\\\P=\dfrac{3500\times 10^3}{300}\\\\P=11666.7\ W

So, the required power is 11666.6 W.
