Find the cost of electricity for running an electric motor of `1` hp the `5` hrs a day at the rate of Rs `1.50` per unit of electricity for the month of November

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`Rs 167.65`

power of motor `P = 1 lp = 746 watt`
Electric energy connected for running a motor for the month of nevember `E = 746 xx 5 xx 30Wh`
`= (746 xx 5 xx 30)/(1000) kWh`
Bill of electricity `= (746 xx 5 xx 30)/(1000) xx 150`
`= Rs 167.65`
