Question

The engine power of a car engine is rated 600 hp at 2600 rpm. What is the torque provided by the engine?

Answer 1

1212 N

Step-by-step explanation:

`P` = Power of the car engine = 600 hp

`w` = angular speed of rotation in the engine = 2600 rpm

`\tau` = Torque provided by the engine

Power of the car engine is given as

`P = (\tau w)/(5252)`

Inserting the values

`600 = (\tau (2600))/(5252)`

`\tau = 1212` N
