Step 1
For example, if the previous reading for Rooding Electric Consumption was 500 units and the present reading is 600 units, the consumption would be the present reading minus the previous reading. So, the Rooding Electric Consumption would be 600 - 500 = 100 Show more…

Use Table 1 to estimate the number of kilowatt-hours of electric energy a typical single-family home consumes in one month. Don't forget lightbulbs (they aren't in Table 1 ).
Estimate the amount of electric current that is drawn by three appliances you use on a daily basis.
Consider a household that uses $14,000 \mathrm{kWh}$ of electricity per year and 900 gal of fuel oil during a heating season. The average amount of $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ produced is $26.4 \mathrm{lbm} / \mathrm{gal}$ of fuel oil and $1.54 \mathrm{lbm} / \mathrm{kWh}$ of electricity. If this household reduces its oil and electricity usage by 15 percent by implementing some energy conservation measures, determine the reduction in the amount of $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ emissions by that household per year.
