प्रश्न
Which uses more energy: a 250 W TV set in 1 hour or a 1200 W toaster in 10 minutes?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Energy consumed by the TV set,
E = p × t
= 250 × 1
= 250 Wh
Energy consumed by the toaster,
E = p × t
`= 1200 Wxx10/60h (10 min = 10/60h)`
= 200 Wh
Thus, it is clear that the TV set consumes more electrical energy.
