Question

A toaster oven is plugged into an outlet that provides a voltage difference of 120 v. Wha power does the oven use if the current is 10 A ?

Answer 1

P= VI

P= (120V) (10A)

P= 1,200 W

Answer 2

Power of oven, P = 1200 watts

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Voltage difference of a toaster oven, V = 120 Volts

Current flowing in the oven, I = 10 A

The relation between the potential difference, current and the power is given by:

`P=V* I`

`P=120\ V* 10\ A`

P = 1200 Watts

So, the power used by the oven is 1200 Watts. Hence, this is the required solution.
