    A water pump of power 2kW is installed in a home. Then, the amount of water (in litres) it can raise in one minute to a height of 10m is [Take\[g=10m/{{s}^{2}}\]]

    A) 200 L

    B)                        1200 L

    C)  800 L                    

    D) 350 L

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Power \[=\frac{mgh}{t}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[m=\frac{P\times t}{gh}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[m=\frac{2\times {{10}^{3}}\times 60}{10\times 10}=1200kg\] \[\text{Volume =}\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Density}}\text{ =}\frac{\text{1200}}{\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{3}}}}\text{=1}\text{.2}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}\] \[\text{Volume =1}\text{.2}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}\text{=1}\text{.2 }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ 1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ L=1200L}\]
