An electric bulb draws a current of 0.8 A from 250 V mains. The bulb is used on an average 8 hours a day, If the energy costs Rs 3 per kwh ,calculate the monthly bill for 30 days.
The monthly bill for 30 days will be 144 rupees.
Explanation:
Suppose that...
Charge = V
Current = I
Here is given...
V = 250 V
I = 0.8 A
Let calculate from the formula...
P = V × I
= 250 × 0.8 = 200 W = 200/1000 kw
E = P × t
= 200/100 × (8 × 30)
= 0.2 × 240 = 48 kwh
∵ costs is 3 per kwh so...
= 48 × 3 = 144
So the monthly bill for 30 days will be 144 rupees.
