An electric lift with a maximum load of (lift + passengers) is moving up with a constant speed of . The frictional force opposing the motion is . The minimum power delivered by the motor to the lift in watts is: ()
- A
- B
- C
- D
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Total upward force () required to move the lift with constant speed must balance the weight () and the friction ():
