1 ) Watts =E * I = 110 * 5 = 550 watts =.55 KW

2) I = Watts / e = 1100 / 110 = 10 amperes

3) 1 horsepower = 33000 ft/lbs per minute

HP = ( 2000 * 1000) / (33000 *4) = 15.1515 hp

4) cost = (10 * 100 / 1000) *11 * $0.10 = $1.10

5) This answer will be incorrect because you have not stated the power factor of the motor.

va = I * E = 7.5 * 240 = 1800

2 hp = 2 * 746 watts = 1492 watts

If the motor had a 1.0 power factor (it doesn't) the efficiency would be

efficiency = output / input = 1492 / 1800 = 82.888 %

6) I = watts / E =1000 / 120 = 8.333 amps

7) 1 = watts / E = 1000 / 240 = 4.1616

8) Kw-hr = (2 * 24 * 365 ) / 1000 = 17.52

cost = kw-hr * $0.03 = 17.52 * $0.03 = $0.5256

9) efficiency = (115 * 240) / (2400 * 12) = 95.8333 %

10) KW = (I^2 * R) / 1000 = (20^2 * 5) / 1000 = 2
