AnswerThe current through a toaster connected to a 120-V source is 8.0 A. What power is given off by the toaster? p= 8.0 A : 120V (p=960 W Page 2 7. The resistance of an electric stove eleinent at operating temperature is 11 12.

Explanation:

hope this helps =)

Hello!!

For calculate the resistance of the toaster, we have to applicate formula:

[tex]\boxed{R= V^{2}/P}[/tex]

[tex]\textbf{Being:}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{}[/tex] [tex]P = Potency \ power = 1500 \ W[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{}[/tex] [tex]V = Voltage = 120 \ V[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{}[/tex] [tex]R = Resistance = \ ?[/tex]

[tex]\text{Then let's \textbf{replace it according} we information:}[/tex]

[tex]R = (120 \ V)^{2} / 1500 \ W[/tex]

[tex]R = 9.6 \ \varOmega[/tex]

[tex]\textbf{Result:}\\\text{The power of the toaster is \textbf{9.6 Ohms}}[/tex]
