Electrical power (P) is measured in watts using the formula P = V · I where V is the voltage in volts and I is the current in amperes.

If there are 60 volts running to a light bulb of 174 watts, how much current is flowing through the light bulb?

current flowing through the light bulb is 2.2 Amperes

Step by step Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Given the voltage = 60 Volts and power = 174 Watts.

Find the current using the formula , P = V . l

=> l = P/V=60/174= 0.3448275862
