Motor Lifting a Mass

Motor Lifting a Mass#

A motor with an efficiency of \({{params.e}}\) is rotating a \({{params.r}} \ \rm{m}\) radius wheel at \(\dot \theta = {{params.RPM}} \ \rm{RPM}\) to lift a \({{params.m1}} \ \rm{kg}\) mass.

A motor with a wheel of radius r pulling a rope that is lifting a mass m1.

Part 1#

How much power does the motor consume?

Please enter in a numeric value in W.

Part 2#

After adding an \({{params.m2}} \ \rm{kg}\) load, you notice the wheel spins slower. The power consumption does not change. What is the new RPM?

Answer Section#

Please enter in a numeric value in RPM.
