"What force causes weight?"
--Weight is caused by gravity. The weight of an object is determined between the gravitational force of the object and the Earth.

"How is weight affected as an object moves farther away from the center of the Earth?"
--As you travel away from the Earth's surface, your mass stays the same but your weight reduces as gravitational pull decreases.

Gravity affects weight of an object

Its weight reduces as it moves away from the center as gravity is strongest near the core and reduces as you move away

A refrigerator having a power rating of 350W operates for 12 hours a day. calculate the cost of electrical energy to operate it

rodikova [14]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

The cost of energy can be calculated by multiplying each given value, a dimensional analysis must be taken into account in order to calculate the total value of the cost in Rs.

$Cost=0.350[kW]*12[\frac{hr}{1day}]*30[days]*4.5[\frac{Rs}{kW*hr} ]=567[Rs]$
