Question 10

An electric motor has a total input energy of 850 J from the electrical supply.

It transfers 510 J of useful kinetic energy to a load.

What is the efficiency of the motor?

Use the equation: efficiency=useful output energy transfer÷total input energy transfer\text{efficiency} = \text{useful output energy transfer} \div \text{total input energy transfer}efficiency=useful output energy transfer÷total input energy transfer
