An Led Light bulb is rated 14 W. How much energy will the light bulb consume if it is on for 1 hour (3600 seconds)

Sagot :

Answer:

18kW

Explanation:

very LED bulb has a power rating in terms of Watt-hour. It gives the power consumption per hour. For e.g. a 100W light bulb consumes 100W of electricity per hour. If left 'on' for 10 hours, a 100W light bulb costs 1kW and 1 unit of electricity is burned. Because 1 unit = 1 Kw of electricity.

I calculated my electricity consumption in 1 hour with LED Bulb as follows-

LED Bulbs power rating- 15 watt

quantity- 1

No. of hours a day – 12

Wattage in 1 hour – 12(time) x 15(load) x 1(quantity) = 180W = .18kW

So consumption units of power with a LED Bulb consume in 1 hour= .18 Units (because 1 KW = 1 unit)
