A 110 V light bulb takes 0.9 A current and operates 12h/day. Determine the energy consumed by the bulb for 30 days.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Given:
Potential V = 110V
Current passing through bulb, I = 0.9 A
time,t = 12h/day
For 30 days, time t = `12xx30 `
= 360 h
To find : Energy consumed , E = ?
`E = VI t`
`=0.9xx110xx12xx30`
Energy, E = 35.64 kWh
