Question:
3. A typical discounted price of a AAA battery is
$0.90. It is designed to provide 1.5 volts and 1.0 amps for about an hour. Now we multiply volts and amps to obtain power of 1.5 watts from the battery. Thus, it costs $0.90 for 1.5 Watt-hours of energy. How much would it cost to deliver one kilowatt-hour? (Think of a kilowatt-hour of electricity as the power needed to run your dishwasher one time.) How does this compare with the cost of energy from your local electric utility at $0.20 per kilowatt-hour? (1.2, 1.3)
