how much would it cost to use 1440 volts in one school day?

Question

We need this we are doing a project in school for a green space.

Answer 1

I assume you mean 1440 "watts", not volts.

The cost depends on the rate the electric utility charges ($ per kilowatt hour)

So, to find out the cost of 1440 watts:

If;
1,440 watts = 1.44 kilowatts (kw)
and
one school day = 8 hours

then

1.44kw x 8 hrs x $ per kw hour = cost

Answer 2

I believe you are missing important information.

This could be a very good question but at this point you are missing information. If I were to use 1440 volts and wanted to know the price I would also need to know how much volts cost. I would have to call the hydro company or find a cost somewhere. I live in Toronto Ontario, If I call Toronto Hydro I know it won't help because you probably don't live in Toronto so your hydro prices would not be the same.

Answer 3

You need to know how many AMPS are used as well and then work out the number of watts used (volts x amps).
Then you need to know the cost per watt (or kilowatt)
The overall cost will be watts x cost

Answer 4

Cant measure usage in volts. Volts measures the pressure at which energy flows, not how much is used.

Its like asking how much does it cost to drive 70mph

Answer 5

it depends on Amps

if you mean regular house power

thats like 15 AMP, about

lets say 1500 watts/ hour

1.5 KW

x 6 hours

10 KW hours, a rough estimate, costs like $1.50
