   The expenditure is =
   
   bulb = 100W
   
   
   fan = 100W
   
   
   heater = 1000W
   
   
   time for each per day = 8 hours.
   
   
   Power = (100*8) + (100*8) + (1000*8)
   
   
              = 800 + 800 + 8000
   
   
              = 9600 Wh
   
   
   Cost of electricity is = Rs 2 per unit
   
   
   ... Monthly cost = 9600 * 2 * 30
   
   
                                     1000
   
   
                           = 96 * 2 * 3
   
   
                           = Rs. 576

   Earthing prevents electrical shocks as the earthing conducts the excess
   current to the earth which is neutral and hence prevents shocks.

   Earthing prevents electrical shocks as the earthing conducts the excess
   current to the earth which is at a zero ptential and hence prevents shocks.

   When an alpha particle gets decayed we notice that the Atomic number reduces
   by 2 while the mass number reduces by 4 and during beta particle decay the
   mass number remains a constant while the atomic number increases by 1.

   Plants and animals readily absorb Carbon 14 from the carbon dioxide in the
   air that they respire and takes about 5800 years to degenerate and hence by
   testing the amount of carbon that has been used up people can guess how old
   a said tree or animal is.

   A machine whose mechanical advantage is less than one is useful as it will
   always act as a force multiplier.

   The musical sound is soothing to the year whereas noise is disturbing to the
   ear. The sound level of music is low below 30db while the sound level of
   noise is above 120db.Music is produced by periodic vibrations whereas noise
   is an irregular disturbance.

   The distance of the moon from the earth is :
   
                                         
     speed of wave = 3 * 108m/s
   
   
                                      
             time = 2.5 seconds
   
   
                                         
      V = 2D
   
   
                                         
               t 
   
   
                                         
      3 * 108 = 2D
   
   
                                         
                      2.5
   
   
                                         
   ... D = 3*108 * 2.5
   
   
                                         
                       2
   
   
                                         
        D = 3.75 * 108 m

   This happens because the density of the medium increases and hence the speed
   of light decreases.
