it the minimum average power?
13. An energy-efficient fluorescent lightbulb operating at power Pı = 28 W can produce the
same level of brightness as a conventional incandescent lightbulb operating at power P,
100 W. Lifetime of the energy-efficient bulb is T = 10000 h, and its purchase price is
B1 = $4.50. Lifetime of the conventional bulb is T2 = 750 h, and its purchase price is
B2 = $0.42. Suppose electrical energy costs R = $0.20/kWh, i.e. 20 cents per kilowatt-
hour. a) Calculate the total cost of using energy-efficient bulbs over 10,000 hours. b)
Calculate the total cost of using conventional bulbs over 10,000 hours. Note that you
must include both the cost of purchasing the bulbs and the cost of energy.
a) When she went away for the weekend, Celia left her TV on by mistake. The TV has a power rating of 200.0 W. She was away from 6 p.m. on Friday night until 9 p.m. on Sunday. How much energy did leaving the TV on use? Give your answer in kWh.
b) If electricity costs 11.3 ¢per kWh, find out how much leaving the TV on costs her.
What is the useful energy output when a 60 W light bulb is on for 2 hours?Recall, traditional light bulbs are only 5% efficient.

- Compact fluorescent bulbs are much more efficient at producing light than are ordinary incandescent bulbs. They initially cost much more, but last far longer and use much less electricity. According to one study of these bulbs, a compact bulb that produces as much light as a 100 W incandescent bulb uses only 23.0 W of power. The compact bulb lasts 10000 hours, on average, and costs $12.00, whereas the incandescent bulb costs only $0.73, but lasts just 750 hours. The study assumed that electricity costs $0.070 per kilowatt hour and that the bulbs were on for 4.0 hours per day.
