Answer:
an apple falling off a tree
Explanation:
Answer:
a) 2.85 kW
b) $ 432
c) $ 76.95
Explanation:
Average price of electricity = 1 $/40 MJ
Q = 20 kW
Heat energy production = 20.0 KJ/s
Coefficient of performance, K = 7
also
K=(QH)/Win
Now,
Coefficient of Performance, K = (QH)/Win = (QH)/P(in) = 20/P(in) = 7
where
P(in) is the input power
Thus,
P(in) = 20/7 = 2.85 kW
b) Cost = Energy consumed × charges
Cost = ($1/40000kWh) × (16kW × 300 × 3600s)
cost = $ 432
c) cost = (1$/40000kWh) × (2.85 kW × 200 × 3600s) = $76.95
Answer:
Assuming there are 28 days in each month,
750W = 0.75kW
Cost of electric bill = 0.75 × 8 × 28 × $0.23
= $38.64
Answer:
Yes the body will receive a dangerous shock in both cases.
Explanation:
Different parts of the body has different resistance. skin has the high resistance as compared to other organs of the body.
Dry skin has high resistance than wet skin this is because water is relatively good conductor of electricity, it adds parallel path to the current flow and hence reduces skin resistance.
Dry hands body has approximately 500 kΩ resistance and if 120 V electricity supply current received will be:
I = V/R= 120/ 500*10^3
I= 0.24 mA
Even the current seems is much lower than the safe zone but this is the case in case of DC voltage in case of AC voltage the body will receive a shock this is because the skin pass more current when the voltage is changing i.e. AC.
Similarly for wet hands body resistance is 1 kΩ. so the current through the body seems to be:
I = 120 / 1000
I = 12 mA
The current is higher than safe zone so the body will receive a dangerous shock.
