a light draws 220 watts on a 120 volt circuit, how many amperes of electricity is it using?
120 amperes

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct solution is "1.83 A".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Power,

P = 220 watts

Current,

I = 120 volt

Now,

The voltage will be:

⇒  [tex]P=I\times V[/tex]

or,

⇒  [tex]V=\frac{P}{I}[/tex]

On substituting the values, we get

⇒      [tex]=\frac{220}{120}[/tex]

⇒      [tex]=1.83 \ A[/tex]

Answer:

1.83 amperes
