Help me? 4w x 1month = 4j/1s x 1 month=_______=______J?

Question

4w x 1month = 4j/1s x 1 month=_______=______J

find hte number of calories given off by a 4-W bulb in a night light tht burns continuously for one month.

4watts multipled by 1 month= 4joules/ 1second multipled by 1month multipled by BLANK = BLANK JOULES

Answer 1

Here, you need to find out the number of seconds in a month.

Basically, you have a 4W bulb, which gives out 4 Joules every second. This goes on for 3600 seconds (1hour) for 24 hours, for 30 days (assuming that a month would have 30 days)... Assuming that a month has 30 days is usually the standard technique followed in such quesitons

So, 4wx1month = 4j/sx1month = 4 j/s x 30 days x 24hous/day x 3600 seconds/hour = 10,368,000 joules

I guess the blanks should read

FIRST_BLANK=4 j/s x 30 days x 24hous/day x 3600 seconds/hour

SECOND_BLANK=10,368,000 joules

Hope that helps :)

Answer 2

4j/sec x 3600 sec/ hr x 24 hrs/day x 30 days/ month

cross cancel the units

leaves you with

10,368,000 Joules/month-second blank

Hope it helps
