[QUOTE="bigpapi4153, post: 4525512, member: 489994"] [h2]Homework Statement [/h2] Not really a problem but more of an experiment. Attempting to measure the amount of energy used for one typical shower I have come up with these units, I need help figuring out the energy being consumed through the shower water use and shower water cost. Some equations would be very helpful. Average Shower Time: 17 Minutes Shower Head Water Usage: 2.5 gallons (U.S. Average) per minute Water Cost: $2.00 per 1,000 gallons (U.S. annual average for price) Water Heater Usage energy type: Electric Cost of Water Heater Usage: $0.17 per kWh Water Temperature: Calculated at approximately 61 degrees Fahrenheit Shower Temperature: Calculated at approximately 115 degrees Fahrenheit [h2]Homework Equations[/h2] the issue is I am not sure what equation needs to be used to solve for energy [h2]The Attempt at a Solution[/h2] Dont have an attempt without the equations [/QUOTE]
