Discussion
A load whose torque is independent of speed is exemplified by
Answer: C
Correct answer: a hoist lifting a fixed weight
The torque a hoist drum must supply is the weight times the drum radius, and neither changes with how fast the drum turns, so the load is constant-torque. A fan is a square-law load, a coiler at constant tension and linear speed is a constant-power load, and a stirrer in a viscous liquid is a viscous load with torque proportional to speed. Conveyors and positive displacement pumps join the hoist in the constant-torque class.
