Question

what horsepower is required to pump 2500 kg of water 100m up in 5 min?

Answer 1

As we know that P = W / t
And here W is equal to mgh
Therefore P = mgh/t
P = 2500× 100 × 10 / 5× 60
P = 8333.33 watt
And 1 watt is equal to 746 horsepower
Therefore P = 8333.33× 746
P= 6216666.66 horsepower ..
