The power developed by a pimp in lifting
Answer to Problem 12PP
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The mass of water being lifted per minute,
Depth through which it is lifted,
Formula used:
Power is given by the work done divided by the taken to do the work,
Where
Also, work done is given by,
Where
Calculation:
Now, when the water is being lifted then the force acting on it is due to its weight,
Then, work done will be,
Then, power needs to be developed by the pump is,
Conclusion:
Thus, the power that needs to be developed by the pump is
