An electric power distributor charges residential customers $0.10 per kilowatt-hour (kwh). the company advertises that "green power" is available in 150 kwh blocks for an additional $4 per month. (green power is generated from solar, wind power, and methane sources.) if a certain customer uses an average of 391 kwh per month and commits to one monthly 150 kwh block of green power, what is her annual power bill

To practice problem-solving strategy 10.1 for energy conservation problems. a sled is being held at rest on a slope that makes an angle θ with the horizontal. after the sled is released, it slides a distance d1 down the slope and then covers the distance d2 along the horizontal terrain before stopping. find the coefficient of kinetic friction μk between the sled and the ground, assuming that it is constant throughout the trip.
