Question

A light bulb operates at a voltage of 110 volts and consumes 50 watts of power. How much current flows through the light bulb?

Answer 1

5/11 amperes ≈ 0.455 amperes

Explanation:

The applicable formula for the current (I) is ...

I = P/V . . . . where P is power in watts, and V is voltage in volts

I = (50 watts)/(110 volts) = 5/11 amperes
