Default Compressor Motor: HP v.s. Amps?

Bob's first statement

"... RPM varies from link to link because of diameter differences but torque
is the same everywhere.


Bob's second statement

Guess you missed the math, Dave! Horsepower is passed through each segment
of a transmission link - RPM varies, torque varies, but HP remains the same,
discounting frictional losses.


That isn't what you first posted. Whether you meant to say "hp is the same
everywhere" I have no idea but the first statement was categorically wrong.

I'm not at all sure why women like men. We're argumentative, childish,
unsociable and extremely unappealing naked. I'm quite grateful they do though.
