(choose chapter or problem)

You are cooking breakfast for yourself and a friend using a 1 200-W wafe iron and a 500-W coffeepot. Usually, you operate these appliances from a 110-V outlet for 0.500 h each day. (a) At 12 cents per kWh, how much do you spend to cook breakfast during a 30.0 day period? (b) You nd yourself addicted to wafes and would like to upgrade to a 2 400-W wafe iron that will enable you to cook twice as many wafes during a half-hour period, but you know that the circuit breaker in your kitchen is a 20-A breaker. Can you do the upgrade?
