Find the retail coat of gasoline (per unit volume) in your area and find the cost of electricity for residential users in your area.
retail cost of gasoline: $2.496/gal cost of electricity: 20.01 cents/kWh
a. compare the cost of energy (per MJ) from gasoline and from electricity from the public unity.
b. the efficiency of a gasoline automobile is about 20% and the efficiency of a battery electric vehicle is about 85%. Discuss the relative transportation costs for gasoline and electric vehicles.

A 3000 kg car goes from 0 to 70 miles per hour in 6 seconds. Assume all the work supplied by the engine goes into increasing the kinetic energy of the car. 1. If the engine is purely electrical (and 100% efficient), determine the electrical work supplied in kW.h by the engine battery. A kW.h of electricity costs about 25 cents (this is just for your information). (kWh) 2.If the engine is a gasoline powered engine, determine the fuel consumed...

2. The electric vehicle Tesla Model S has a drag coefficient of 0.24, a mass of 2100 kg, and a frontal area of 2.4 m2. The coefficient of rolling resistance of its tires is 0.01. Recall the density of air at sea level is 1.3 kg/m3. How much kinetic energy is required to overcome rolling resistance and air resistance (drag) at Autobahn speeds of 180 km/hr for a 200 km trip? How much useful energy (in MJ) and money (in...

At α= 0.01, can you conclude that the mean costs per ounce are different? Perform a one-way ANOVA test by completing parts a through d. Assume that each sample is drawn from a normal population, that the samples are independent of each other, and that the populations have the...
