An electric motor takes 5A from a 220 V line. Determine the power of the motor and the energy consumed in 2 h.


Here,

Voltage, V = 220 V


Current, I = 5 A


Power, P = V x I = 220V X 5 A = 1100 Watts


Thus, the power of the motor is 1100 watts.


Now,


Power, P = 1100 W (Calculated above)


Time, t = 2 hour = 2 x 60 min x 60 sec


=


= 7200 s


So, Energy, E = P x t


E = 1100W X 7200 sec


= 7.92xJ


Thus, the energy consumed is 7.92 x 106 joules.
