A faculty administration wants to change all fluorescent lights in rooms, labs, and classrooms. There are 250 lambs. A regular bulb is 5 TL and a LED bulb is 45 TL. A regular bulb consumes 40 Watts electricity whereas a LED bulb consumes 6 Watts. If electricity price is 0.80 TL per kilowatt-hour, how many days later will LED bulbs be more economical. Assume average working time (of all bulbs) is 6 hours. Note that the time for average life of the bulbs is 3 years.
Ohm's law
Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.
Path of Least Resistance
In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.
