4 What determines the power rating of a ma-
chine?
-5 If we cover up the vents in a motor, its out-
put power must be reduced. Explain.
-6 If a motor operates in a cold environment,
may we load it above its rated power? Why?
An electric motor driving a skip hoist with-
draws 1.5 metric tons of minerals from a
trench 20 m deep every 30 seconds. If the
hoist has an overall efficiency of 94 percent,
calculate the power output of the motor in
horsepower and in kilowatts.
