A steam shovel lifted 1100 pounds of dirt 1 foot in one second how many horsepower is this?

To calculate horsepower, you can use the formula: horsepower = (weight in pounds × height in feet) / (time in seconds × 550). In this case, the steam shovel lifted 1100 pounds of dirt 1 foot in 1 second. Plugging in the values, we get: (1100 × 1) / (1 × 550) = 2 horsepower. Therefore, the steam shovel is operating at 2 horsepower.


How much horsepower is needed to lift 220 lbs 30 inches in 10 seconds?

1 horsepower = 550 foot-pounds per second 30 inches = 2.5 feet (2.5) x (220)/10 = 550 foot pounds per 10 seconds = 1/10th of a horsepower.


If you are given the mass of an object in pounds the time in seconds and the distance in feet what must you do before you can calculate the momentum in SI units?

You must convert the mass from pounds to kilograms, time from seconds to seconds, and distance from feet to meters. Only then can you use the formula for momentum (momentum = mass * velocity) to calculate momentum in SI units (kg*m/s).


How much horsepower is 1000 pounds of thrust?

To convert thrust in pounds to horsepower, you can use the formula: horsepower = (thrust in pounds × velocity in feet per second) / 550. Since thrust alone doesn’t provide a speed, if we assume a typical jet engine operates at a speed of around 500 feet per second, 1,000 pounds of thrust would be approximately 909 horsepower. However, the actual horsepower can vary significantly based on the specific velocity used in the calculation.


How many seconds will it take a 100 horsepower motor to lift a 10000 pound elevator 400 feet vertically?

How much is 68000 pounds of thrust in horsepower?

To convert thrust in pounds to horsepower, you can use the formula: horsepower = (thrust in pounds × speed in feet per minute) / 33,000. For instance, if the thrust is applied at a speed of 1 foot per second, 68,000 pounds of thrust would be equivalent to approximately 2,066 horsepower. However, without a specific speed, a direct conversion cannot be accurately provided.


How much horsepower does a buggati veyron have?

It produces 1001 horsepower @ 6000 RPM and 922-feet or, pounds of torque @ 2200 RPM and the fastest record of a Bugatti Veyron is 253 mph.


A helicopter is lifting an 800-pound unit at a rate of 200 feet per minute how many horsepower of work energy is the helicopter using in the process?

To calculate the horsepower used by the helicopter, you first need to convert the lifting work into units of power (horsepower). The formula to calculate power is: (Force * Distance) / Time. In this case, you would calculate (800 lbs * 200 ft) / 1 min to get the power in foot-pounds per minute. To convert that to horsepower, you would divide by 33,000 (the number of foot-pounds per minute in 1 horsepower).


helicopter lifting 800 pounds unit rate of 200 feet per minute how many horsepower of work energy?

Using: 1 horsepower = 550 foot-pounds per second800 x 200 = 160,000 foot-pounds per minute = 160,000/60 foot-pounds per second.# Horsepower = 160,000/60 x 550 = 428/33 = 4.848 HP (rounded)
