. A circulating pump consumes 450 W for 24 hr a day. a. Determine the energy consumed for a one-year period. b. Calculate the ut

ility energy charges for this period at a rate of $0.12/kWh. c. Determine the energy saved for a one-year period, if the pump is switched off 8 hr a day. d. Calculate the energy cost savings for this period at a rate of $0.12/kWh, if the pump is switched off 8 hr a day.

Answer:

  a. 3942 kWh

  b. $473.04

  c. 1314 kWh

  d. $157.68

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>a. </h3>

There are 1000 W in 1 kW, so 450 W = 0.450 kW. The energy used per day is ...

  (0.45 kW)(24 h) = 10.8 kWh . . . . energy per day

Then in a 365-day year, the energy used is

  (365 da/yr)(10.8 kWh/da) = 3942 kWh/yr

__

<h3>b.</h3>

At the rate of $0.12/kWh, the cost of running the pump is ...

  ($0.12/kWh)(3942 kWh/yr) = $473.04/yr

__

<h3>c.</h3>

Switching the pump off for 1/3 of the time will save 1/3 of the energy found in part (a):

  1/3(3942 kWh) = 1314 kWh . . . . energy saved by switching off the pump

__

<h3>d.</h3>

The savings will be 1/3 of the cost of running the pump full time:

  1/3($473.04/yr) = $157.68/yr

Questions about rational and irrational numbers
FinnZ [79.3K]
Rational numbers are those numbers that are integers and can be expressed in the form of x/y where both numerator and denominator are integers whereas irrational numbers are those numbers which cannot be expressed in a fraction. ... The denominator of a rational number is a natural number(a non-zero number).

Rational numbers and irrational numbers are mutually exclusive: they have no numbers in common. Furthermore, they span the entire set of real numbers; that is, if you add the set of rational numbers to the set of irrational numbers, you get the entire set of real numbers.

Answer: If a number can be written or can be converted to p/q form, where p and q are integers and q is a non-zero number, then it is said to be rational and if it cannot be written in this form, then it is irrational.

If there are two numbers on one side, do i have to add them together?
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

YES

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, in the figure displayed in the attachment, the length of YM = MS + SY

MS = 3

SY = 10

Therefore, YM = 3 + 10 = 13.

The lengths of segments MS and SY sums up to give you the length of YM.
