Question

Which uses more energy of 250 watt tv set in 1 hour or 12?

Answer 1

toaster uSes more energy

Answer 2

⇒ Power (P) TV = 250 W

⇒ Time Taken (t) = 1 hr

⇒ Heat = Power × Time

⇒ H = Pt

⇒ 250 W × 1hr

⇒ 250 Wh

therefore , the energy consumed by 250 W TV set in 1 hr = 250 Wh.

⇒ Power (P) Toaster = 1200 W

⇒ Time Taken (t) = 10 minutes

⇒ H = Pt

⇒ 1200 × 10/60

⇒ 200 Wh.

Therefore, Energy consumed by TV set is more than by the toaster in the giving timing.
