How much energy is used when a 110kw appliance is used for 3 hours

We could take the easy way out and just say

(110 kW) x (3 hours) = 330 kilowatt hours .

But that's cheap, and hardly worth even 5 points.
If we want to talk energy, let's use the actual scientific unit of energy.
________________________________________________

" 110 kw " means 110,000 watts = 110,000 joules/second .

(3 hours) x (3600 sec/hour) = 10,800 seconds.

(110,000 joules/second) x (10,800 seconds) = 1.188 x 10⁹ Joules

 That's

==>  1,188,000,000 joules

==>  1,188,000 kilojoules

==>  1,188 megajoules

==>  1.188 gigajoules

Atsa nawfulotta energy ! 
It goes back to that "110 kw appliance" that we started with. 
That's no common ordinary household appliance.  110 kw is something like
147 horsepower.  In order to bring 110 kw into your house, you'd need to
take 458 Amperes through the 240-volt line from the pole.  Most houses
are limited to 100 or 200 Amperes, tops.  And the TRANSFORMER on
the pole, that supplies the whole neighborhood, is probably a 50 kw unit.

Which characteristic of a sound is affected by the amount of energy used to create that sound? In what direction the sound will
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

The correct option is;

How loud or soft the sound is

Explanation:

The loudness of a sound wave is given by the amount of energy that the pressure wave carries and it is measured in decibels (dB) which is the relative intensity of the pressure wave of a sound to the standard pressure

A loud sound has a high amplitude and a soft sound has a low amplitude, such that as the amplitude of the sound is increased, due to increased energy input, the sound becomes louder, and as the amplitude of the sound is decreased due to reduced energy input, the sound becomes softer.
