Answers
Answer:
30 KW
Explanation:
no. of bulbs=3, power=300w,Time=5hours. E=P x T. E=3x100x5 =1500. no of hours power used daily for 20days E=1500x20=150000. Energy in kw=30000/1000 =30Kw
Given,
Power of bulbs=100W
Time=5 hours daily
To find,
The energy that is consumed by bulbs in 20 days
Solution,
We can find the energy consumed by,
We know that the energy consumed is the product of power and time, divided by 1000.
So, energy consumed by the bulbs=Power of bulbs × Time/1000
Here it is given that the power of bulbs=100W
Time for using those bulbs in a day=5 hours/ day
Now we can calculate the energy consumed in 1 day by putting the values,
Energy consumed in a day=100×5/1000
=5/10=1/2
=0.5 kWh
Now, the energy consumed in 20 days can be obtained by multiplying the energy consumed in 1 day by 20.
So, the energy is consumed in 20 days=0.5×20
=10 kWh
Hence, the total energy consumed in 20 days is 10kWh.
