In unloading grain from the hold of a ship, an elevator lifts the grian through a distance of 12 m. Grain is discharged at the top of the elevator at a rate of 2 kg each second and the discharge speed of each of grain particle is 3 `ms^(-1)`. Find the minimum horsepower of the motor that can elevate grain in this way. (Take g=10 `ms^(-2)`)
