Detailed Solution

If an electric geyser is rated 1500 W and 250 V is connected in 250 V line and operated for 50 hours and cost of 1 unit is  6, then the cost of energy is ₹ 450.
It is given that the rating of the geyser is 1500 W-250 V and it is connected in 250 V line for the time t=50 hr
It is known that the energy consumption (E) is equal to
     E=P×t
Where P, t is the power and the time respectively.
On substituting the given values, we get
    E=1500×50
E=75000 Wh
E=75 kWh
Since, 1 unit is 1 kWh and therefore energy consumed is equal to
    E=75 units
Hence, the energy consumed by geyser is 75 units.
The energy consumed by geyser is 75 unit and hence the cost of energy (C) is equal to
    C=75×6= 450
Therefore, the cost of energy is  450.
