26. In a certain city, electricity costs $0.17 per kW•h. What is the annual cost for electricity to power a lamp-post for 6.00 hours per day with (a) a 100.-watt incandescent light bulb (b) an energy efficient 25-watt fluorescent bulb that produces the same amount of light? Assume 1 year = 365 days.
(a) 100.-watt bulb
(b) 25-watt bulb
(c) A typical incandescent bulb costs $0.89 and lasts for about a year; a typical energy efficient fluorescent bulb costs about $3.49 and lasts for about 3 years. Is the additional cost of the fluorescent bulb justified? Yes No
