Question

Calculate the power rating of a home appliance (in kilowatts) that uses 5.1 amps of current when plugged into a 120 Volt outlet. Write your answer to the second decimal place.

Answer 1

Answer:0.612 kilowatts

Step-by-step explanation:

Current=5.1 amperes

Voltage=120 volts

Power=current x voltage

Power=5.1 x 120

Power=612

power=612 watts

power=612/1000 kilowatts

Power=0.612 kilowatts
