Answer:
Power input, P = 2880 watts
Explanation:
It is given that,
Voltage of the motor, V = 240 V
Current required, I = 12 A
Weight lifted, W = 2000 lb
It is lifting at a speed of 25 ft/min. We need to find the power input to the motor. The product of current and voltage is called power input of the motor.
[tex]P=I\times V[/tex]
[tex]P=12\ A\times 240\ V[/tex]
P = 2880 watts
So, the power input of the motor is 2880 watts. Hence, this is the required solution.
