Calculate the electrical energy consumed in a month, in a house using 2 bulbs of 100 W each and 2 fans of 60 W each, if the bulbs and fans are used for an average of 10 hours each day. If the cost per unit is ₹ 3, calculate the amount of electrical bill to be paid per month. |

Answer» Given power of each bulb = 100 W Power of each fan = 60 W Time t =10 hours each day Power of 2 bulbs = 2 × 100 = 200 W Power of 2 fans = 2 × 60 = 120 W Total power = 200 + 120 = 320 W = 320/1000 = 0.32KW Time duration of consumption 10 hours per day per month = 10 hours × 30 = 300 hours ∴ Total energy consumed = Total power x Time duration = 0.32 KW × 300 h = 96 KWh ∴ Total cost = 96 x 3 = ₹ 288. |
