What is the charge for 1000 kWh electric bill?

To answer this question the rate at which your utility company charges you has to be stated. The cost of a kWh will be found on your electrical bill. Multiply that charge by 1000 which represents the 1000 kWh that was read on your house meter.


How many volts watts and amps would an electric piano use?

Some where on the electric piano there will be a manufactures label. When you find it the voltage and amperage will be stated. To find the wattage use the formula W = Amps x Volts.


What is an electron neutron and protron?

Atom's were the smallest thing that we knew of in our universe, until one day a long time ago we split the atom and begun to take a look inside.In the center of an atom are proton's and neutron's. The center is also called the nucleus.Moving around the center of the atom are electrons. Electron's are now the new 'Smallest' thing known to man.Electrons have a negative chargeProtons have a positive charge andNeutron's have a neutral or no charge (some atoms may not apply to this rule)From the information of how many Electrons/Protons and Neutron's you can discover certain qualities and the family/place in the periodic table of elements.I've added links to help you further in understanding Atoms.In an atom a proton is a positive charge, an electron is a negative charge and a nuetron is a neutral charge.Protons are attracted to electrons, due to opposite charges.Electromagnetic force pulls them (Protons and Electrons) together.Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus (center of the atom).


What is the element with charge if needed with 23 protons 28 neutrons and 18 electrons with a net charge of 3 plus?

No element or ion as stated can exist, because if it contains 23 protons and only 18 electrons, its net charge must be 23 - 18 = 5 plus, not 3 plus.


An electric train is moving north at 100kph and a wind is blowing to the west at 10kph Which way does the smoke blow?

No smoke on an electric train (unless its on fire).

Would perpendicular lines have negative or positive slopes?

I believe they have Negative Slopes as stated by my Geometry Book. "Perpendicular Lines Have Slopes Which Are Negative ___"


Can an object have negative kinetic energy?

The kinetic energy of an object can never be negative. Why? The equation for kinetic energy is 1/2mv^2. Mass cannot be negative, as it is mass. Though velocity can be negative, it will never result in a negative resultant because it will be squared. An example would be -4 squared. -4 squared will result in a positive 16. Even -4000 squared will still be a positive 16000000. So in conclusion, kinetic energy will never be negative.


What direction does a circuit flow?

Conventional current flow positive to negative. Electron current flow negative to positive. With newer testing methods these days these statements are being revised as to whether that are completely correct as stated.


Which is greater negative 3 or negative 5?

negative 3, because on a number line, the negatives are lower when the absolute value is higher(simply stated). Basically, remember that negatives a re opposite the properties of positive.


What is the difference between electronic current and conventional current?

Difference between conventional current and electric current? • Electric current can be either negative or positive, but conventional current is always positive.• The conventional current for an electron flow is positive, whereas the electrical current is negative.• For a flow of positive charges, both the electric current and the conventional current are the same.• Since almost every electrical circuit uses an electron flow, it can be safely stated that the conventional current = - electrical current.• In conventional current, the flow of electrons is assumed as a flow of protons on the opposite direction.


What is stated by the law of electrical charge?

Opposite charges attract, and like charges repel each other. Coulomb's law of electric charges says that there are two kinds of charges, positive and negative, and that like charges repel each other while unlike charges attract.


What does a positive 6 minus negative 7 equals?

By implication numbers in mathematics are positive unless stated otherwise. Where confusion may arise the positive or negative sign is shown for purposes of clarity. (+6) - (-7) = ? This would normally be written as 6 - (-7) = ? If the "7" were a positive number then the result would be :- 6 - (+7) = 6 - 7 = -1, but "7" is a negative number and subtracting a negative number is equivalent to adding a positive number. So, (+6) - (-7) = 6 + (+7) = 6 + 7 = 13


Negative 6 plus negative 3 equals?

-6 + -3 = -9. Note, adding a negative number is the same as subtracting a positive number, so the above equation could more efficiently be stated as -6 -3 = -9.

Why -1 is the greatest integer?

It is not - so the question is seriously flawed. If you stated that -1 was the greatest (most positive) negative integer you would be correct. However, numbers are infinite so you cannot state a greatest integer. Integers are both positive and negative numbers, but have to be whole numbers


If the discriminant is negative the equation has solutions?

As stated in the attached link, there are three possible discriminant conditions: Positive, Zero, or Negative. If the discriminant is negative, there are no real solutions but there are two imaginary solutions. So, yes there are solutions if the discriminant is negative. The solutions are imaginary, which is perfectly acceptable as solutions.
