A house is fitted with `20` length of `60` watt each `10` fans consuming `0.5` ampere each an electric kettle of resistance `110 Omega`. If the energy is supplied at `120 V` and costs `150` paise `kWh`, calculate monthly bill for running these appliances for 6 hours a day (1 length = 30 days).

Verified by Experts

Here, `n_(1) = 20` lamps, `P_(1) = 60W`,
`n_(2) = 10` fans, `I_(2) = 0.5 A, n_(3) = 1` kettel, `R_(3) = 110 Omega`
`V_(1) = V_(2) = V_(3) = 220 V, t_(1) = t_(2) = t_(3) = 6h//"day"`
`Rate = 50` paise/kWh, Total cost = ?
Electric energy consumed per day
`n_(1) P_(1) t_(1) + n_(2)V_(2)I_(2)t_(2) + n_(3) xx (V_(3)^(2))/R_(3) xx t_(3)`
`[ 20 xx 60 xx 6 +10 xx 220 xx 0.5 xx 6 +1 xx ((220)(^2))/110 xx 6 ] Wh`
`= (7200+ 6600 + 2640)/1000 = 16.44 kWh`
`:.` Total energy consumed in November month
` = 16.44 xx 30 = 493.2 kWh`
`:.` Total bill ` = 493.2 xx 50/100 = 246.60` rupees.
