Answer:

4.545 A

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Using,

P = VI....................... Equation 1

Where P = power of the heater, V = Voltage supply, I = Electric current that flows through the heater

make I the subject of the equation above

I = P/V.................. Equation 2

Given: P = 1000 watt, V = 220 volt.

Substitute these values into equation 2

I = 1000/220

I = 4.545 A
