Manga Household Appliances Tyra

Calculate how much it costs to use five common appliances that you use every day in your home for 24 hours. Please let me know the applicance, its wattage, amps and volts of each appliance and how you calculated cost. You will need to go to GRU or look at one of your electric bills.

---I couldnt get this information for my "home" however I found that typically the max amount of amps of electrical power a home can hold is about 200. Below is an image of common household appliances, their wattage, amps, and voltage.

How many of those appliances can you plug into one outlet without tripping a breaker? Please do this mathematically rather than through direct experience.
---1. Figure out which fuse box powers which outler

2. Check the amps listen on the specific switch in the fuse box

3. Next it's time to do the math...multiply this by 120V = wattage for the circuit:
4. Multiply the wattage by 0.8 = safe wattage

What is the directional relationship between charge and current?

---Electric current is the rate of charge flow past a given point in an electric circuit, measured in Coulombs/second which is named Amperes.

EC Find the distribution board and photograph for where you live. You may have to ask a janitor to let you in. What is the maximum current value for the structure that you live in? Again if you do not live in a single family home, you may have to do some research or asking.

---I was not allowed access to this.

Outlet Overloading:

Apparently, according to Mr. Electricity, you are not overloading a outlet but the circuit supplies power to the multiple lights and outlets.

Most homes can hold about 200 amps of electrical power, making the possibility of overloading, quite small. In order to find the capacity of circuits so they don't overload:

Find what breaker/ fuse services which outlet. Once this circuit is identified, check the amps # (i.e. 15) at the end of the breaker switch. 

Multiply this by 120 (volts) to find the total wattage, or capacity, for the circuit: For example, 15 x 120 = 1800 watts.

Multiply the total wattage by 0.8 to find the safe wattage: 1800 x 0.8 = 1440 watts.

The above list of everyday appliances we use in our household are shown, based on a monthly estimate/ cost of kilo Watts per hour (kWh). The wattage, size and usage assumption are thus averaged, based on such findings, with the help of Duke EA  Electric Appliances.

What is the directional relationship between charge and current?

Electric current is the rate of charge flow (measured in amperes) past a given point in an electrical circuit. The charge's movement is based on the positive and negative sourced areas. The motion will always move from a positive source charge to a negative. 

Static Electricity Experiment 

I personally don't have the hair to showcase static electricity but I understand the fundamental concept: that of an imbalance in the electric charges in a surface. Most commonly seen by rubbing a ballon against one's head and watching as your hair reacts to said imbalance, by "standing" up.
