  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    An electric iron draws a current of 15A from a 220 V supply. What is the cost of using the iron for 30 minutes everyday for 15 days if the cost of unit (1 unit = 1 kW hr) is 2 rupees?

    Solution

    I = 15A, V = 220V, t = 30 minutes
    Energy = P × t = VI t
    = 220 × 15 × 30/60 × 15 
    = 3300 × 1/2 × 15 W hr
    = 3.3 kWx 7.5 hr
    = 24.75 kW hr
    Cost = 24.75 × 2 = Rs. 49.50

    Solution

    It is the fundamental equation of motion, so it is not the consequence of Newton's laws of motion.

    Solution

    M2+ = 2, 8, 14; ⇒ Electronic Configuration of M = 2, 8, 16So, total electrons in M will be 26
    i.e. atomic number (Z) = 26, mass number (given) = 56
