The rollercoaster is raised a vertical distance of 35m to point A by a motor in 45 seconds.

The mass of the rollercoaster is 600kg.

The motor has a power rating of 8000W.

Gravitational field strength = 9.8 N/kg.

Calculate the percentage efficiency of the motor.

Answer: 57.17%

600kg = 5880N
(600 x 9.8)
As mass x gravity = weight.

Power= 5880 x 35/45 = 4573.3W
(Force x velocity, velocity is distance/time)

Efficiency= 4573.3/8000 x100 = 57.17%
