Question

Q13. An electric bulb draws a current of 0.8A and works on 250V on the average 8 hours a day, if energy costs Rs 3 per kWh. Calculate monthly bill for 30 days.

Answer 1

using p=v * i
p=250 * 0.8=200w = 0.2kw
power consumed in a day=0.2 *8=1.6 kwh
for one month=1.6 * 30 =48kwh
monthly bills= 48 *3 = Rs 144
