In the kitchen of your house you would like to run a 240 W blender, a 30 W phone charger, a 720 W toaster oven, and two 120 W lights. Assuming your house is wired for 120 Volts, how much current will be pulled by these electrical devices?

Current pulled by these appliances is 10.25 A

Explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the total power used by these appliances.

Total power = 240 + 30 + 720 + (2 × 120) = 1230 W

  • Step 2: Given voltage is 120 V, find the current by using the formula Power = Voltage × Current

⇒ Current(I) = P/V = 1230/120 = 10.25 A
