A brake test is carried out with a balance and a direct current motor. The purpose of this experiment is to calculate the torque on the motor shaft. The following values ​​were obtained in the experiment. U=220 volts., I=107 amps, n = 1200 rpm. The length from the axis of the motor shaft to the point where the brake lever presses on the scale is L=80 cm. and the weight read on the balance G = 20 Kg. is Accordingly, calculate the following values: a) the shaft power taken from the shaft of the motor, b) the electrical power drawn by the motor from the mains  c) motor total losses and  motor efficiency
