 How to Save Energy and Save Money in Your Daily Life   5 Quick Tips For You

The question of how to save energy and save money is being asked more and more often nowadays. When it comes to the area of save money, there are a lots of situation that is out of our control. But as for the save energy part, did you notice that there are so much we can do to reduce the usage or it? Below are some quick and simple tips that you can start right away.

Washing machines: When using the washing machines, 80% to 90% of the total amount of energy used goes into heating the water and only 10%-20% into operating the actual appliance. Always use cold water and cold water detergents whenever necessary.

Refrigerator: Wondering how to save energy and save money with your refrigerator? You can reduce the amount of energy your refrigerator uses by positioning it away from heating-producing sources such as ovens, dishwashers or direct sunlight.

Air conditioner: Here is some cool information for you when you get your air conditioner. Central air-conditioning systems carry a SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating), which typically ranges from 10 to 17. The higher the SEER rating, the more efficient the unit. Before you go air-conditioner shopping, check with your utility company to see if it offers rebates for AC units with high SEER rating.

Ceiling fans: In the summer, set your fan so the blades are pushing air downward to create a breezy, cooling effect. In the winter, reverse the direction so the blades push hot air that accumulates near the ceiling out toward the edges of the room, then down the wall.

Television: Take off the power plug of your television set when not using it. This may not sound a big deal but this tiny step will help save energy and save money.

I hope these tips do help you to get started right away! Save more energy and save more money now! And play a part in fighting the world energy crisis too.

That is some kinda tricky but we are gonna work it out
Thermal power consumed by the transmission line due to its resistance:
P(c)=RI^2
Where P(c) is power consumed
I= produced power divided by produced voltage: I=P/V
(1) In the case before voltage was raised
I=P/V=7000/100=70 A
Thermal power consumed in this case:
P(c)=RI^2=0.6*(70)^2=2940 Watt
Lost power percentage=2940/7000= 42.0%

(2) In the case after voltage has been raised:
P=IV(produced power)
When P is constant then we have
IV=constant ⇒ I1V1=I2V2 ⇒ I2/I1=V1/V2
I2/I1=100/100K=1/1000

And since the lost power percentage is directly proportional to (I^2)
then the ratio between the lost power after and before the voltage raising is equal to (I2/I1)^2 =(1/1000)^2=1/10^6

In math language: P(c)2/P(c)1=(I2/I1)^2=1/10^6
This implies that: P(c)2=P(c)1/10^6
then lost power percentage after voltage raising = 42/10^6 = 42*10^-6%

The second part can be obtained the same way the first part was done as follows:

I=P/V=7000/100000=0.07A
P(c)=RI^2=0.6*(0.07)^2= 0.00294 watt

Lost power percentage in this case=0.00294/7000=42*10^-6%

Comments:
1- This problem would be a little bit more complicated but even more realistic if the efficiency of the transformer was considered.
2- One should differentiate between Power produced and Power consumed (big difference).

Celsius vs. Fahrenheit. Mainly the US is the only country using Fahrenheit.
Celsius = Fahrenheit minus 32 divided by 1.8.
i.e. 212 Fahrenheit – 32 = 180 / 1.8 = 100 Celsius (I used this example because 212 degrees Fahrenheit is the boiling point of water, which coincidentally so is 100 Celsius.

Conversely 400 degrees Fahrenheit – 32 = 368 divided by 1.8 = 204 Celsius.

This India Railways ad is behind by 20 yrs, when detergent ads used to flock television. Nowadays u hardly find this ad on TV. Does it go via Gorakhpur or Varanasi

well …. uh … yes …. but youtube doesn’t let you edit videos and i don’t see a way to upload something here. if you ask this out at permies i know i can upload at least one more pic and i can ask ernie and erica if they have anything more.

Lmao, “mr.poser”? You said you branded yourself with the Mjolnir cause of this song, not music video, 1. And 2: again, this song has nothing to do with Norse mythology, doesn’t matter that they are from Scandinavia, Tomi Is just singing about depression, & nature. I can be from Japan and have a rising sun headband floating in the vid and be singing about doing backflips. Doesn’t mean the song has anything to do with the Japanese. And the only Norse thing in the vid is the hammer.
