A recently proposed wave energy power system off the south western coast of Africa estimated their construction cost to be $2.9-million per MW.

The most cost effective wave energy generation plants are operating around 7.5 cents per kWh, as opposed to coal fired power stations at 2.6 cents/kWh.

It's because it need only 20% of the electrical power to produce as much light, therefore less energy is wasted.


How much electrical energy is produced by a light bulb with the power ratings of 60w?

A lamp doesn't produce electrical energy; it utilises it. The power-rating of the lamp will tell you the rate at which that lamp uses expends energy at its rated voltage. For example, a 60-W lamp will expend energy at 60 joules per second.

What does the power rating of an electrical appliance mean?

The power rating of an electrical appliance represents the rate at which the appliance uses electrical energy. It is typically measured in watts and indicates how much electricity the appliance consumes when it is in use. Higher power ratings suggest that the appliance uses more energy.

How much heat energy is produced from 3000 joules of electrical energy?

The amount of heat energy produced from electrical energy depends on the efficiency of the system. If we assume 100% efficiency, then all 3000 joules of electrical energy would be converted into heat energy. Thus, 3000 joules of electrical energy would produce 3000 joules of heat energy.


What is the relationship between appliances power rating and the amount of heat it produce?

power rating is the rate of moving energy their relationship in the amount of heat it produce it divided by time to move that much energy

How do you work out how much energy is transferred by an electrical device?

You can calculate the energy transferred by an electrical device using the formula: energy (in joules) = power (in watts) × time (in seconds). Simply multiply the power consumption of the device in watts by the time period it is operating in seconds to determine the energy transferred.
