How much does it cost to operate a 1000 watt mercury vapor light?

The same as it costs to operate any 1000 watt device or combination thereof. Your electrical bill is rated in kwh or kilowatt hours. (A kilowatt happens to be 1000 watts per hour). So if your local rate is say 8.5 cents per kwh ( a typical amount ) then it will cost 8.5 cents per hour ( plus tax & service fees, etc.!) Check your electric bill and find out your exact per kilowatt/hour rate. Since this type fixture is a commercial fixture, your rate may be a higher commercial rate than most residences.


How do you calculate the cost of electricity bill of a 3 phase 125kW induction motor running at 400v 50Hz motor running for 8 hrs condition if 1000w equal to Rs0.238?

To answer this question, i need the power factor of the motor.CommentYou don't need the power factor, as you already know its true power (watts), but you do need to know the efficiency of the motor to determine its input power. You also need to know the cost per kilowatt hour.But you can get a rough idea by multiplying the number of kilowatts, by the time in hours, by the cost per kilowatt hour. For a more accurate answer, you need to divide this by the efficiency of the motor.

What would be the cost of operating 60 1000watt Metal Halide lamps for 10 hr?

To find out the cost of operating 60 1000watt Metal Halide lamps for 10 hours, you multiply the amount of power (in kilowatts) by time and hours. That will give you kWh (kilowatt hours), then you find out how much your power costs in $/kWh, then divide the kilowatt hours you are using by the cost ($/kWh).

What is the cost per week of using a 40w light bulb for 36 hours in a week?

Not enough information - I don't know what your light company charges you per kWh. Here is how you calculate this: a) Convert the week to hours. b) Convert the watts to kilowatts. c) Multiply the result of part (a) by the result of part (b), to get the total number of kilowatt-hours. d) Get the cost per kilowatt-hour. Look at a bill from your power company. If the cost per kilowatt-hour is not stated explicitly, you can divide the total amount of dollars (or whatever) by the kilowatt-hours billed, to get the cost, in dollars per kilowatt-hour. e) Multiply the result of part (c) by the result of part (d).

Are kilo watt hours bad for energy?

No, kilowatt-hours are an exact measure of a quantity of energy. Energy is something that can be measured exactly and if you have an electricity supply at your house there is a meter that measures the kilowatt-hours you use. If you have a 40-watt light, it uses 40 watt-hours if it is on for an hour. If it is left on for 24 hours it uses 40 x 24 watt-hours, which is 0.96 kilowatt-hours, that might cost you 10-20 cents or pence.
