Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.4P
Electric power companies measure energy consumption in kilowatt-hours, denoted kWh. One kilowatt-hour is the amount of energy transferred by 1 kW of power in a period of 1 hour. A power company billing statement reports a user's total energy usage to be 1500 kWh. Find the amount of energy in joules used during the billing period.
