How much current is drawn by the motor of 0.5 hp from 220 volt supply?

Explanation

To find the current drawn by a motor with a power of 0.5 horsepower from a 220-volt supply, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Convert horsepower to watts
We know that 1 horsepower (hp) is equivalent to 746 watts. Therefore, to convert 0.5 hp to watts, we multiply:

\[ \text{Power (P)} = 0.5 \, \text{hp} \times 746 \, \text{W/hp} = 373 \, \text{W} \]
