Warm up for 1/9-1/10 Only write your response. You do not have to copy down the prompt. There are 5 parts to this problem. We are starting with the first part. Thorpeville is a rural community with a population of 8,000 homes. It gets its electricity from a small, municipal coal-burning power plant just outside of town. The power plant’s capacity is rated at 20 megawatts with the average home consuming 10,000 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity per year. Residents of Thorpeville pay the utility $0.12 per kWh. A group of entrepreneurs is suggesting that the residents support a measure to install 10 wind turbines on existing farmland. Each wind turbine is capable of producing 1.5MW of electricity. The cost per wind turbine is $2.5 million dollars to purchase and operate for 20 years. A) The existing power plant runs 8,000 hours per year. How many kWh of electricity is the current plan capable of producing?

Calculate the annual cost of the electricity for the washing machine, assuming that 3.0 gallons per minute of the water used by the machine comes from the hot-water heater. 4 cycles 15 minutes X 6.0 gallons 52 Saturdays = 18,720 gallons/ year X X Saturday cycle 1 minute 1 year 18,720 gallons 0.30 kWh X ? X 1 gallon year Goal is to get to $/ year

An electric water heater requires 0.30 kWh to heat a gallon of water. The thermostat is set to 150 degrees Fahrenheit. The cost of electricity is $0.20 per kWh.
