For a heater, rated $\displaystyle 4$ kW and $\displaystyle 220$ V, calculate the following:(a)The current(b)Energy consumed in $\displaystyle 2$ hours(c)If $\displaystyle 1$ kWh is priced at ₹ $\displaystyle 4 \cdot 50$, then the cost of energy consumed
For a heater, rated $\displaystyle 4$ kW and $\displaystyle 220$ V, calculate the following:
(a)
The current
(b)
Energy consumed in $\displaystyle 2$ hours
(c)
If $\displaystyle 1$ kWh is priced at ₹ $\displaystyle 4 \cdot 50$, then the cost of energy consumed
Marking-scheme solution
Given : \(\displaystyle P=4 \mathrm{~kW}=4000 \mathrm{~W}\)
\(\displaystyle V=220 \mathrm{~V}\)
(b) \[\begin{aligned}
E & =P X t \\
& =4 \mathrm{~kW} \times 2 \mathrm{~h}=8 \mathrm{kWh}
\end{aligned}
\]
(c) Cost of \(\displaystyle 1 \mathrm{~kW}=₹ 4 \cdot 50\) Then \(\displaystyle 8 \mathrm{kWh}=8 \times 4 \cdot 50=₹ 36 \cdot 0\)
