Electric motor powering the bucket elevator

Reference no: EM13652224

You operate a small grain elevator near Champaign, Illinois. One of your silos uses a bucket elevator that carries a full load of 800 kg through a vertical distance of 39 m. (A bucket elevator works with a continuous belt, like a conveyor belt.)

(a) What is the power provided by the electric motor powering the bucket elevator when the bucket elevator ascends with a full load at a speed of 2.2 m/s?
