Author induction motor and calculations

I am trying to learn and learn the basics of induction motors. So far
I have learned that there are single phase, three phase etc. Also, a
lot has to do with load and power. Just what exactly does load mean
and how do I calculate total power if I have 3 motors with 2hp, 20hp
AND 10hp respectively?

Thanks,
GN

Well power is revolutions times torque.
A single pahse cannot deliver constant
torque, whereas a threephase can.
The rest are details.
