    Study Notes

    Electrical Calculation

    • Ohm's Law defines the relationship between current (I), voltage (V), and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit.
    • Current (I) is the rate of electric charge flow measured in Amps (A).
    • Voltage (V) is the potential difference between two points in a circuit, measured in Volts (V).
    • Resistance (R) is the opposition to current flow, measured in Ohms (Ω).
    • Power (P) is the rate at which electrical energy is converted, measured in Watts (W).
    • Power companies calculate energy usage based on the formula E = P x T, where E is electrical energy, P is power in Kilowatts (kW), and T is time in hours.

    Practice Examples

    • A television with a power rating of 50.4 Watts (W), operating for 8 hours per day consumes 0.4032 kWh (kilowatt-hours) per day.
    • At a price of $0.15 per kWh, the television would cost $0.0605 per day to operate.
    • A 300 Watt light bulb used for 24 hours a day consumes 7.2 kWh per day and 50.4 kWh per week.
    • A typical 60 Watt light bulb operating for its 1000-hour lifetime uses 60 kWh of energy.
    • At a price of 3 LE per kWh, the lifetime cost of the 60 Watt light bulb is 180 LE.

    Ohms Law

    • Current measures the rate of electric charges, measured in Amps (A)
    • Voltage represents the potential difference between two points in a circuit, measured in Volts (V)
    • Resistance refers to the electrical friction that opposes current flow. It's measured in Ohms (Ω)
    • Power indicates the rate at which electrical energy converts into other forms of energy, measured in Watts (W)

    Electrical Energy Calculation

    • Power companies sell electrical energy by calculating it using the formula: Energy = Power x Time (E=PxT)
    • Power needs to be measured in Kilowatts (KW), and time in hours.

    Practice Sheet Examples

    • A television with a power rating of 50.4 Watts consumes 0.4032 kWh of energy per day if used for 8 hours.
    • The cost of running the TV for 30 days at 0.15perkWhis1728cents/monthor0.15 per kWh is 1728 cents/month or 0.15perkWhis1728cents/monthor210.24 per year.
    • A typical 60-watt light bulb consumes 60 kWh of energy over its lifetime, assuming a 1,000-hour lifespan.
    • The cost of the 60-watt bulb's energy over its lifetime is 180 LE/KWhr at 3 LE/KWh.
