Derive the relation between commercial unit of energy (kWh) and SI unit of energy (joule).
State the one-kilowatt-hour relationship with joule.

उत्तर
We can establish a relation between kilowatt-hour (kWh) and Joule (J) as –
1 kilowatt-hour = 1 kilowatt for 1 hour
= 1000 watt for 1 hour
But,
`1 "watt" = (1 "Joule")/(1 "s")`
So ,
1 kilowatt - hour = 1000 `"Joules"/"second"` for 1 hour
= `1000 "Joules"/"seconds" 60 xx 60 "seconds"`
= `3.6 xx 10^6` J

The commercial unit of energy is :
- Take two aluminium channels of different lengths.
- Place the lower ends of the channels on the floor and hold their upper ends at the same height.
- Now take two balls of the same size and weight and release them from the top end of the channels. They will roll down and cover the same distance.
- At the moment of releasing the balls, which energy do the balls have?
- As the balls roll down which energy is converted into which other form of energy?
- Why do the balls cover the same distance on rolling down?
Note: The question is wrong. It should be "Why do the balls cover the same distance after rolling down"? - What is the form of the eventual total energy of the balls?
- Which law related to energy does the above activity demonstrate? Explain.
