Answer:

2.54379284 hp.

Step-by-step explanation: Torque is defined as the engines rotational force. First we find the distance = m in equation- then we use the formula Power = work/time = 16.7/ 5 = 3.34 and Horsepower formula is given by. Horsepower = (Torque × Speed) / 5252. HP = (3.34 × 4000) / 5252. HP = 13360/5252. HP = 2.54379284 hp.

Given : W=4000 m=? h=20 m

Time of operation t =5 s

Work done in lifting a box W=mgh= ? ×12×20=4000 = m = 4000/240=16.6666667 = 16.7KG

Power required P= W/t = w/p = 120000/120 =1000 watts We divide 60/5 = 120 then divide by 10 = 12 (being g)
