You are using an electric motor that requires 40 volts to operate. The motor's circuit uses only 5 amps of direct current. How much power is being used? 5 watts 8 watts 40 watts 200 watts

Respuesta :

power = current * voltage

40v * 5A = 200W

Answer:

Power, P = 200 watts

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of electric motor, V = 40 volts

Current used by motor, I = 5 amps

We need to find the power used by the electric motor. The product of voltage and current is called the power of the electric motor i.e.

[tex]P=V\times I[/tex]

[tex]P=40\ V\times 5\ A[/tex]

P = 200 watts

So, the power of the electric motor is 200 watts. Hence, this is the required solution.
