An electric car uses a 45-kW (160-hp) motor. If the battery pack is designed for 340V, what current would the motor need to draw from the battery? Neglect any energy losses in getting energy from the battery to the motor.

Current = 132.35 A

The motor needs to draw 132.35 Amperes current from the battery.

Explanation:

The formula of electric power is given as follows:

Power = (Voltage)(Current)

Current = Power/Voltage

In this question, we have:

Power = 45 KW = 45000 W

Voltage of Battery Pack = 340 V

Current needed to be drawn = ?

Therefore,

Current = 45000 W/340 V

Current = 132.35 A

The motor needs to draw 132.35 Amperes current from the battery.

answer; equivalent to a one(1) horsepower motor;
