dimanche 2 février 2014

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data



An escalator at a mall lifts passengers 6m. The escalator has to be able to lift 50-75kg people at one time up the lift. The time to make it to the top is 40s. What must the power rating of the escalator be?



2. Relevant equations

w=fd



p=w/t

3. The attempt at a solution
