Question

9. The UL panel on the bottom of an electric toaster oven indicates that it operates at 1500 W on a 110 V circuit. Determine the electrical resistance of the toaster oven.

Answer 1

8.067 ohms

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between voltage, resistance, and power is ...

P = V²/R

so ...

R = V²/P = 110²/1500 = 8 1/15

R ≈ 8.067 . . . ohms
