Question:
- A water pump raises 50 litres of water through a height of 25 m in 5s. Calculate the power which the pump supplies
Information provided with us:
- Quantity of water = 50 litres
- Height is 25 m
- Time taken is 5s
- g = 10 N kg-¹
- Density of water = 1000 kg m -³
What we have to calculate:
- Power which the pump supplies?
Finding out the volume of water:
- As we know that,
One litre contains = 1000 millilitres
So
- Volume = 50 × 10 × 10 × 10
- Volume = 50 × 10-³ m³
Finding out mass of water:
- In order to find the mass of water we have to multiply volume of water with density of water.
- As we already know about the density and volume of water so let's begin.
=> Mass of water = Volume of water × Density of water
=> Mass of water = 50 × 10-³ × 1000
- We have taken 1000 also because 1 litre contains 1000 millimetres
=> Mass of water = 50 kg
At last finding out power supplied:
Using Formula:
- Power = Work done / time taken
Again,
- Work done = mgh
Substituting the values:
- Power = 50 × 10 × 25 / 5
- Power = 10 × 10 × 25
- Power = 100 × 25
- Power = 2500
Hence,
- Power is 2500 W which pump supplies
