Find the amount of time required by a pump of 1 kW power to lift 500 kg of water to 40m height?
Added by Zooko D.
Step 1
Work = force x distance The force required to lift the water can be calculated using the formula: Force = mass x acceleration due to gravity The mass of the water is given as 500 kg, and the acceleration due to gravity is approximately 9.8 m/s^2. Force = 500 Show more…

How much time will a pump of 1 kW power takes to lift 500 kg of water to height of 40m?
Gopal S.
A pump lifts $200 \mathrm{~kg}$ of water per hour a height of $5.0 \mathrm{~m} .$ What is the minimum necessary power output rating of the water pump in watts and horsepower?
A pump is capable of developing $4.00 \mathrm{~kW}$ of power. How many litres of water per minute can be lifted a distance of $35.0 \mathrm{~m} ?$ ( $1 \mathrm{~L}$ of water has a mass of $1 \mathrm{~kg} .$ )
