A lawnmower engine ejects 1.00 x 104 J each second while running with an efficiency of 0.200. Find the engine’s horsepower rating, using the conversion factor 1 hp = 746 W.
Water is pumped from a lake to a storage tank 25 m above at a rate of 70 L/s while consuming 22.4 kW of electric power. Disregarding any frictional losses in the pipes and any changes in kinetic energy, determine the overall efficiency of the pump–motor unit.
Flying with a speed of VV∞ = 120 m/s at an altitude of 2000 m, where the density is 1.007 kg/m3, the pilot
calculates the required power to be 61 kW
A) If the power plant is an ICE-propeller with shaft power of 320 kW at sea level, and a propeller efficiency
of 80 %, what are the maximum rates of climb at altitudes of 2000 m and 5000 m if the total aircraft
mass is 2000 kg?
B) Assuming the rate of climb varies linearly with altitude, find the minimum time taken to climb from 2000
m to 5000 m.
