Quiz 2

To operate a 4-kW air conditioner for 12 hours with electricity costing P7/kWh will cost P336, as 4 kW running for 12 hours is 48 kWh and 48 kWh at P7/kWh is P336. A 75-W lightbulb drawing power from a 120-V line will draw 0.625 A of current, as power (Watts) equals voltage (Volts) times current (Amps), and using Ohm's Law we calculate the current as Watts / Volts which is 75 W / 120 V = 0.625 A.
