A motor pump lifts 200 kg of water per minute to a height of 15 m. Power (g=10) is MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A motor pump lifts 200 kg of water per minute to a height of 15 m. Power (g=10) is
A. 3000 W
B. 1000 W
C. 2000 W
D. 500 W
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Work per minute = mgh = 200×10×15 = 30000 J. Power = 30000/60 = 500 W.
