To solve the problem step by step, we will calculate the efficiency of the motor that pumps water from a well. ### Step 1: Understand the given data - Power of the motor (P_input) = 10 kW = 10,000 W - Depth of the well (d) = 20 m - Mass of water pumped per minute = 200 kg - Time (t) = 1 minute = 60 seconds - Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s² ...
