Suppose you use 57 kWh (kilowatt hours) of electricity at $0.35 per kWH, 91 kWh at $0.26 per kWh, and 82 kWH at $0.24 per kWh. What is your total kHW of electricity used? Note: Our electricity bills are calculated exactly in this manner, either based on blocks of usage.

Assuming that the diet of an average Canadian consumes 2,500 food calories per day (1 cal=4200 J), compare the amount of energy consumed by a Canadian family of 5 in one year in their diet with the amount of electrical energy their household consumes. The average annual electricity usage of a family of 5 in n area can be estimated by 6000+5x1,600 kWh. What is the ratio of electrical energy consumption to caloric energy consumption for this family of 5? (1kWh=3,600,000 J). Your Answer: Answer

A monthly electric bill is based on the following usage: A set of electronic devices that altogether are rated at 1,812 W. The devices are ON 12 hours a day. A set of light of total power 562 W that are on 24 hours a day. What would be the value of the bill if we count one month as 30 days and electricity costs $0.08 /kWh. Write down your answer as an amount of dollars rounded off to an integer value ( no decimals) and do not put any unit.
At home I have a 350W motorized washing machine that I use to wash three times a week, 2 batches of clothes of 22 minutes each each time. Based on this problem, answer the following questions: a) How much energy in Joules do I "consume" in a year? (use 52 weeks for your calculation) b) based on the conditions of the previous question, what consumption would you have in kWh? c) How much do I pay, annually, in dollars, for the use of the washing machine, if the rate for energy from my electric company is 0.17443 / kWh?
