If a pump is capable of lifting 5000kg of water through a vertical height of 60m in 15 min, the power of the pump is
A
2.2.5 x 10 5js-1
B
2.5 x 104js-1
C
3.3 x 103js-1
D
3.3 x 102js-1
correct option: c

P = (\frac{mgh}{t})

P = (\frac{5000 \times 10 \times 60}{(15 \times 60)s})

P = 3333.3333

P = 3.3 x 103js-1
