In the diagram above, a 200 W bulb is lighted by a 240 V a.c mains supply. If 1kwh is sold at N40, the cost of keeping the bulb lighted for a day is
A
N1,920.00
B
N192.00
C
N19.20
D
N1.92
correct option: b

Energy consumed = power x time

= 200W x 24hr = 4800wh

= 4.8 kwh

But 1 kwh cost N40

∴ 4.8kwh costs 4.8 x 40

= N192
