a 120 hp automobile engine delivers only 81 hp to the driving wheels of the car. What is the efficiency of the transmission and drive mechanism?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

The efficiency of the transmission and drive mechanism is 67.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

for a 120 hp automobile engine which delivers only 81 hp, we have the efficiency of transmission to be;

[tex]\frac{81}{120}[/tex] × 100

= [tex]\frac{81 * 100}{120}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{8100}{120}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{810}{12}[/tex]

= 67.5%
