Question

Am elevator lifts a load of 1250 kg through a height of 20m in 5s. Calculate the power of the elevator.

Open in App

Solution

We have,
m= 1250kg
g= 10 m/s²
t = 5s
h=20m
work done = mgh
W = 1250 X 10 X 20
Work done = 250000 J
P = Work done/time taken
Power = 250000/5
Therefore, power = 50000 W
