Solution

Dear Student ,
Here in this case , current , I = 5 A and Voltage , V = 220 V .
Therefore , power of the motor is ,
P =VI = 220×5=1100 watt
You can either convert time into seconds or not .
Here , time = 2 hours = 7200 seconds
Now energy consumed in 2 hours is ,
E = Pt = 1100×2=2200 Wh=22001000=2·2 KWh
