Well Vinayak Iyer, thats an unusual name. I mean, I don't get to see one like that often. Danish? My Grandmother is Danish. Thats my Fathers mother. Her maiden name is Johansen. Since I am on the subject of names, there are some names that have become "household" words over the years. Would you take a look at these sites please Vinayak?

I=V/R
Impedance = Voltage / Resistance
Or a more understandable way of saying the same thing.
Amperage equals the Voltage divided by the Wattage.
A=V/W
Or likewise.
Voltage times Amperage equals wattage.
VxA=W
Or.
Wattage divided by Amperage equals Voltage.
W/A=V
I am sure you have the idea now.
You gave us volts but now I need either amps or watts in order to complete the equation and in this case, also run time. With time we can know the watthours or the amphours as well. How many hours do you want to run the motor?
Typically, manufactures of electrical doodads will place a label on their gizmos that states at least two of these, not including time. But time can be required for a specific or non-specific rating such as; @ the 20 hour rate or, continuous and, momentary. There is one that applies to PV and thats, the number of hours of equivalent full rated output per day. I do wish someone would come up with an acronym for that. Or something.
What that means is, PV modules do not make their full rated power all day long. No, they start out in the morning very much below rated output and as our Sun comes more perpendicular to it, the power goes up and up until noon time and then power output starts to decline into the early evening. What we do then is add up the total for a day and divide that by the PV modules full rated power output in watts. Here is a site that can explain that better.
