A replacement electric motor is being considered for purchase. It is capable of providing 200 hp. The pertinent data are as follows: Cost $ 3200 Electrical efficiency 0.85 Maintenance cost per $ 50 year Life expectancy 14 years Salvage value after 14 $0 years The motor is used for 400 h/yr and the cost of electricity is $ 0.04/kWh (1 hp-D0.746 kW). What is most nearly the effective annual cost using an interest rate of 10%?

A 54.52-hp motor that has an efficiency of 90.72% is soon to be obsolete. It will be replaced by a high efficiency motor which is 96.08% efficient. The motor operates 4,378 hours a year. Taking the cost of electricity to be P8.92 per kWh, compute for the annual savings due to the installation of the high-efficiency motor instead of the standard motor. Round your answer into two decimal places only.

An electric motor with a maximum output of 75 hp (horse power, English: hp, horse power) on the axle has an efficiency of 91%. It will be replaced with a new motor, which has the same maximum shaft power, but an efficiency of 95.4%. The old engine has been in operation for 5000 hoursper year with at 80% of its maximum effect (ie '80% load' or '80% load factor'). The new engine must run with the same load and the same number of hours.a) How much electrical energy is saved per year by replacing the old one with the new motor?b) How much expenditure on electricity is saved by replacing the old with the new motor whenelectricity price is $0.14/kWh?
