A water pump, rated400 W, has an efficiency of75%. If it is employed to raise water through a height of40 m, the volume of water drawn in10 minis

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Output power=η×input power

=0.75×400=300 W

Now, fromP=dwdt=d(mgh)dt

dmdt=Pgh=30010×40=34 kg

=34×60 kg  min-1

=45 kg  min-1

Hence, water drawn in 10 min

=45×10=450  kg  m-3

Since, density of water=1000 kg  m-3

Therefore, fromm=ρV

V=mρ=4501000=0.45 m3
