The cost of electricity varies widely throughout the United States; $0.120/kWh is a typical value. At this unit price, calculate the cost of the following.
a. Leaving a 40.0-W porch light on for 2 weeks while you are on vacation.
b. Making a piece of dark toast in 3.00 min with a 980 W toaster.
c. Drying a load of clothes in 40.0 min in a 4900 W dryer.

a) $1.6123 , b) $0.00588 c) $0.392

Explanation:

Note, all power in watts is converted to kilowatts and all units of time is converted to hours.

The cost of electricity is $0.12 for 1kwh.

Question a.

Power = 40w to kilowatts = 40/1000 = 0.04kw

Time = 2 weeks to hours = 24 * 14 = 336 h.

Energy = power * time.

Energy = 0.04 * 336 = 13.44kwh.

If 1kwh cost $0.12, then 13.44 kwh will cost

0.12 * 13.44 = $1.6132.

Question b

Power = 980w to kilowatts = 980/1000= 0.98kw

Time = 3 minutes to hours = 3/60 = 0.05 h

Energy = power * time

Energy = 0.98 * 0.05

Energy = 0.049kwh

If 1kwh cost $0.12, then 0.049 kwh will cost

0.049 * 0.12 = $0.00588

Question c

Power = 4900w to kilowatts = 4900/1000= 4.9kw.

Time = 40 minutes to hours = 40/ 60 = 0.67.

Energy = power * time

Energy = 4.9 * 0.67

Energy = 3.267 kwh

If 1 kwh cost $0.12, then 3.267kwh will cost

3.268 * 0.12 = $ 0.392

when cloud cover increases then the suns ray's which provides the earth with light and warmth gets covered due to the due to the suns ray's being blocked, the temperature in that region

therefore to conclude i would like to say that,

=more the cloud cover, the lesser the

happy to

pls mark as brainliest.
