current = 16.7 A
cost of electricity = $0.10/kWh
to find out
cost of running the furnace during January
solution
first we get her power consumed by furnace that is
Power consumed = ........1
put here value we get
Power consumed =
Power consumed = 38.7347 W
and
Power consumed by furnace in one hour is
Power consumed by furnace in one hour is = Power consumed × 3600
Power consumed by furnace in one hour is = 38.7347 × 3600
Power consumed by furnace in one hour is 139.445kWh
and
