The document discusses key concepts related to electrical energy and power. It defines energy as the ability to do work and power as the rate at which energy is produced. The key units are identified as joules (J) for energy, watts (W) for power, volts (V) for potential difference, and amps (A) for current. Formulas for calculating energy (E=P×t), power (P=V×I), and cost of electricity are provided along with examples of calculations.

E = 360,000 J
360,000 Joules of energy were
used to work the stereo
7. A video game has a power rating of
175W & is used for 3600 seconds.
How much energy is used?
E = P•t
E = (175)•(3600)
E = 630,000 J

used for 60 minutes. How much energy is
used?
60min x 60
P = V•I
E = P•t
P = (225)•(4)

16. KWh Question
How much energy is used if a
1500 W speaker is used for 3
hours?
E = Pt
= 1.5 kW * 3 hr
= 4.5 kWh
17. Cost
Every time you use an appliance it
costs money……how do you calculate
how much it will cost?
C=RaPt!
(Usually Given)
Must be in
kW
Remember: 1000 watts = 1 kW
Must be in
hours
18. A 4800 watt television is used for 5
hours. If the cost of electricity is
$0.04kW•h, what would your bill
read? (How much would it cost?)
Cost = rate of electricity x Power x Time
cost = $0.04 × 4.8kW× 5h
cost = $ 0.96
4800 w = 4.8 kW
19. A 1500 watt hair dryer is used for
30 minutes. Electricity costs
$0.05/kW•h. How much does it cost
to use this hair dryer for the period
indicated?
Cost = rate of electricity x Power x Time
cost = 0.05 × 1.5kW × 0.5 h
1500 w = 1.5 kW
30 min ÷ 60 min = 0.5 hrs
cost=$ 0.0375
20. A 3.9 kilowatts curling iron is used
for 10 minutes once a day.
Electricity costs $0.05/kW•h. How
much does it cost to use this curling
iron for a week?
Cost = rate of electricity x Power x Time
cost = 0.05 × 3.9 kW × 0.167 h
10 min ÷ 60 min = 0.167 hrs
cost=$ 0.0325
X 7 days
cost=$ 0.23
21. Cost & Rating Plates

Rating plates allow us to calculate
the electrical cost of an appliance.
22. The rating plate for an electric hair dryer is given
below.
Model: LHOPE-1979
1500 W
200V
40Hz
If the dryer is used for 30 minutes a day & the cost
of electricity is $0.04/kW•h, how much would it cost
to use every day?
Cost = cost of electricity x power x time
Cost =($0.04/kW•h) x (1.5kW) x (0.5h)
Cost =$0.03 or 3 ¢
23. The rating plate for a television is given below.
Model: CANNHOPE-2005
2500 W
250V
60Hz
If the TV is used for 2 hours a day & the cost of
electricity is $0.05/kW•h, how much would it cost to
use for a 30-day month?
Cost = cost of electricity x power x time
Cost =($0.05/kW•h) x (2.5kW) x (2h)
Cost =$0.25
x 30 days
Cost =$7.50
24. No power!!
Recall P = VI
P = (200)(6)
P = 1200 W

If the appliance is used for 1 hour a day & the cost
of electricity is $0.0475/kW•h, how much would it
cost to use every day?
?
Cost = cost of electricity x power x time
Cost =($0.0475/kW•h) x (1.2kW) x (1h)
Cost =$0.057 or $0.06
25. No power!!
Recall P = VI
P = (375)(0.2)
P = 75 W
The rating plate for an electric appliance is given
below.

If the appliance is used for 3 hours a day & the cost
of electricity is $0.05/kW•h, how much would it cost
to use for a week?
?
Cost = cost of electricity x power x time
Cost =($0.05/kW•h) x (0.075kW) x (3h)
Cost =$0.01125
x 7 days
Cost =$0.08
26. The rating plates of four different electric appliances are
used below
A)
860 W
120V
60 HZ
GIN-4445
B)
1400 W
Each appliance is used for 4 hours.
Which of these appliances would be the most
expensive to use?
15 A
140 V
MAC-2453
C)
10 A
125 V
MANDANE-2445
D)
2A
250 V
66 HZ
I8JUL-6712
P=VxI
Since the cost and
time are the same you
must just look
for power…
P = 10 x 125
P = 1250 W
P=VxI
P = 2 x 250
P = 500 W
By comparing Power it
is clear to see that
appliance “C” would
be the most
expensive!
