Electric Power (3 of 3) Calculating the Cost of Electric Power

This video shows you how to calculate the cost of electric power usage by calculating the cost to pop popcorn.
Electric power describes how fast electric potential energy is convert to other forms of energy such as heat, light and motion. Power is measured in watts. One watt is when one joule of energy is converted to another form of energy in one second.

Thank you for this clear explanation, my textbook's explanation bamboozled me. Now I finally understand.

[@stepbystepscience]

Great that you found it helpful.

[@mykasiurka]

Cheers for the Video clip! Excuse me for the intrusion, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you ever tried - Proutklarton Vanish Electricbills Plan (probably on Google)? It is a great one off guide for cutting your electric bill substantially minus the normal expense. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my friend Sam got astronomical success with it.

[@agent_quinn9882]

Yessss, even my textbook has the most crazy example, this one was simple and understandable

[@thefirstsin]

Textbook bamboozled oof

[@kissy7933]

Thank you so much! I was so confused in class about solving word problems with kilowatts. This made it so much clearier.

[@stepbystepscience]

Great!

[@saifabdullah3690]

Great video 💁‍♂️

[@connerbraun5529]

I noticed a couple small things at 4:44, you should have put 23 cents instead of 0.23 cents, and 6 cents instead of 0.06 cents. The video is good otherwise.

[@howawwe3291]

my professor talks in circles, you get straight to the good stuff

[@stepbystepscience]

No reason to waste time talking about stuff that isn't relevant.

23 cents divided by 4 is 5.75 cents or 0.0575 $ (you kept saying dollars instead of cents a few times during the video).
Otherwise nice example. Thumbs up!

[@bostonceltics3055]

EDIT: I meant to say you kept saying cents when it should have been $

Great point!

A very good explanation except for the cents vs dollars confusion.

Thanks for the comment

[@dillonyoung7171]

Hi can you calculate a business that uses two 3kw fires for an average of 20hours each per week, and six 150w lights for 30 hours each per week. If the cost of electricity is 14.25p per unit, determine the weekly cost of electricity to the business.

[@makgotsopearlmaowasha5528]

Thanks a bunch

[@stepbystepscience]

Any time!

[@fukaishikonoenjinia8729]

Nice explanation sir. But, can I ask you a favor? Can you make a video about the difference between KWh and KW/h. It's annoying to hear some people say "KW/h" and even support it with self generated opinions. For non electrical people this may sound unfamiliar, but it will educate those who knows little about this and the importance of correct unit. Thank you sir in advance

[@stepbystepscience]

Isn't that explained in the video???

[@fukaishikonoenjinia8729]

@@stepbystepscience it was not

[@mopar3502001]

Another great video! Thank you for this! I'm really not trying to be picky, but 0.23 cents is not equal to 23 cents. I know it doesn't seem like such an egregious error, but it is after all two orders of magnitude in difference. Maybe express as $ 0.23 or as 23c? Subbed a few videos back btw!!! I love your videos!

[@stepbystepscience]

Yes, you are right.

[@sdpupsdad]

Typo in the presentation. Answer does reflect .23 x .25. thanks we should do a video on cost of electricity for charging an EV or PHEV vehicles.

[@tgc4204]

If I have a 18.4 kWh battery and it takes 4 hrs to a charge with level 2 charger at 0.21516/kWh, it comes out to $19.79. Its seems high. Is this right?

[@abcdddiia]

Math is correct but his conclusion is wrong. This is not $0.06. This is less than one penny.

[@michaelpotter9071]

18.4 kW battery for 4 hours at 0.215 should come to somewhere around $15.82.
Sorry, I know this is old but love a good Maths problem

I meant 5 hours to a full charge.

[@kaburis7280]

why I think the result gives us 5.75 cents and not 0.0575?am I wrong sir?

[@se4216]

Because it's cents you do x 0.23 instead of x 23, then you will get the correct answer

[@drummyt7166]

.05 is 5 cents or .05 x 1$

The cost which is 0.33/kw.h is fixed for all countary. Like ethiopia

[@nasirjabr3911]

The cost was 0.23 cent/kw.h not "23" cent in step 3 ,so we need to correct the number in step 3

Yes, that is the case.

1.5 kw divided by 6 ( 10 minutes is 1/6 of an hour = .25 kwh x .23 cents per kwh = .0575 cents -- much easier !!

[@HarshaVardhan-lm1gv]

on timeline 1:24 if you are mentioning as 23 cents then the display shows 0.23 cents. I think it must be 0.23 dollars.

[@stepbystepscience]

The correct amount is 23 cents, I should not have included the decimal point.

It would help if the title described the cost of energy, NOT power!!

Many thanks, I've been looking for "how many watts does a 55 inch led tv use?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Piyaleb Spectacular Primacy - (do a google search ) ? It is a great one of a kind product for discovering how to generate your own electricity without the headache. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my work buddy got excellent results with it.

[@kimberleighlivingston9411]

about what???

Error: You said 23 cents/kWh, but you wrote 0.23 cents/kWh.

Thanks

[@mrsad1924]

0.06 cents. not 6 cents.

[@stepbystepscience]

But it is 50 cent not 0.50 cents....

[@Davidsavage8008]

That's a lie. When I was in school 11cents per kilowatt hour. 10 minute at 15 amp. .66 cents.

[@uss-usaf-atlantis]

Energy cost nothing

[@stepbystepscience]

Really, I just got a notice from my electricity provider that the cost per kWh was going up 80%.

[@johnnybooney5885]

your money conversion makes no sense. if 23 cents is 23 then .06 cents wouldnt be 6 cents it would be 6 one hundredths of a cent. plz use fractions of a dollar next time so its much easier to understand

[@johnnybooney5885]

or what i should say is use dollars as ur currency or just keep the decimal accurate by making 23 cents .23 as well
