Calculate the current in a
3.9W LED light bulb connected to a 120V outlet. Please answer to three decimal places and provide your answer in units of A (Amps).

Answer:

To calculate the current flowing through the LED light bulb, we can use the formula:

\[ P = VI \]

where:

- \( P \) is the power (in watts),

- \( V \) is the voltage (in volts), and

- \( I \) is the current (in amperes).

Given that the power of the LED light bulb is \( P = 3.9 \) W and the voltage of the outlet is \( V = 120 \) V, we can rearrange the formula to solve for the current \( I \):

\[ I = \frac{P}{V} \]

\[ I = \frac{3.9 \, \text{W}}{120 \, \text{V}} \]

\[ I = \frac{3.9}{120} \, \text{A} \]

\[ I \approx 0.033 \, \text{A} \]

So, the current flowing through the LED light bulb is approximately \( 0.033 \, \text{A} \).
