An electric water pump rate 1.5 kW, lifts 200kg of water through a vertical height of 6 meters in seconds. What is the efficiency of the pump? [g = 10ms-2, neglecting air resistance]
A
90.0%
B
85.0%
C
80.0%
D
65.0%
correct option: c

Efficiency = output x 100

= (\frac{\frac{200 {\times} 10 {\times} {\theta}}{10}}{1500}) x (\frac{100}{1})

= 80%
