The average electricity consumption of a house in
Gainesville is known to be 1,036 kWh in a month
(One month = 30 days). They would like to install
solar panels of 30 % efficiency to generate this
electricity. Given that the average solar power
density in Gainesville is 5.47 kWh/m2/day, how much
surface area must the panels occupy? Calculate the
result in m² but do not write the unit. Round off you
E swer to a whole number (zero decimal place.)

a) A typical small passenger electric vehicle has a range of 200 km on an electric charge of 33 kWh. Convert this number into J/km (Joules per kilometer traveled). b) A comparably sized gasoline powered vehicle to (a) is rated as 25 miles per gallon. Convert this number into J/km (Joules per kilometer traveled). c) If gasoline costs $10.00 per gallon, and electricity $0.30 per kWh what is the difference in the cost of fuel per kilometer travelled between the electric vehicle in (a) and the gasoline powered vehicle in (b)? d) Surveys of EV owners show that they charge at home 70% of the time. Let us assume that for the remaining 30% they charge at a 60 kW rated "fast-charge” station. If patterns of travel remain the same, but we swap all our gasoline vehicles for electric vehicles, what is the ratio between installation of fast charging stations to gasoline pumps retired. e) The Chicago Transit Authority has about 2700 buses that travel a total of 240,000 miles daily.
