MCQ
An electric lift with a maximum load of $2000\,kg$ (lift+ passengers) is moving up with a constant speed of $1.5\,ms ^{-1}$. The frictional force opposing the motion is $3000\,N$. The minimum power delivered by the motor to the lift in watts is: $\left(g=10\,ms^{-2}\right)$
  • A
    $20000$
  • $34500$
  • C
    $23500$
  • D
    $23000$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$34500$
b
Constant velocity $\Rightarrow a =0$

$\Rightarrow T = W + f$

$=20000+3000$

$=23000\,N$

$\text { Power } = Tv$

$=23000 \times 1.5$

$=34500 \text { watts }$
