प्रश्न
An electric heater is rated at 2 kW. Electrical energy costs Rs 4 per kWh. What is the cost of using the heater for 3 hours?
(a) Rs 12
(b) Rs 24
(c) Rs 36
(d) Rs 48
उत्तर
(b) Rs. 24
Electrical energy consumed in three hours = P x t = 2 kW x 3 hour = 6 kWh
Unit cost = Rs. 4 per kWh
Therefore, the cost of energy used for three hours = 4 x 6 = Rs. 24
