Yes, apologies it was a typo it is 1.6*120=192 W. If you could please check the rest of my work it would be great because this problem has been a pain in my side for a couple of days (:
I just wanted to know if I was correct. Whether my process of thinking was correct and the numbers backed it up. The power factor is just p=1/2 VI cosϕ, correct? so is it then 1/2 [120*1.8 cos (0)]= 96 W.

Yeah I actually just figured it out, that is the only thing I messed up... Should be
F=mv^2/r
(.4)g=v^2/r
(9.8*.4)r=v^2
3.92*18=v^2
v=8.4m/s
Thanks for helping you guys
