Question

please provide detail solution. Will rate five star for correct answer.

A transistor radio operates by means of a 10 V battery that supplies it with 62 mA current. If the cost of the battery is $2.43 and it lasts for 321 h, what is the cost per kWh to operate the radio in this manner? Answer in units of $/kW . h The same radio, by means of a converter, is plugged into a household circuit by a home owner who pays $0.08 /kW . h. What does it now cost to operate the radio for 321 h? Answer in units of $

Explanation / Answer

power= 10V * 62mA = 0.62W

kWh = power * hr =0.62 * 321 =199.02 * 10^-3 kWh

COST OF BATTERY = $2.43

so answer = $2.43 / 199.02*10^-3 kWh =12.209
