Question

How much energy is used by an 80% efficient, 2 kW (input) motor running at a peak load for 5 hours?

A.

16 kWh

B.

4 kWh

C.

8 kWh

D.

2 kWh

Correct option is C


Rating of motor = 2 kW,
Time = 5 h
Efficiency = 80% = 0.8
η=(output power)/(input power)
Output power = 2×0.8 = 1.6 kW
So used energy =1.6×5 = 8kWh
