34.11 Electric Power Electric power is equal to the product of current and voltage.

34.11 Electric Power Unless it is in a superconductor, a charge moving in a circuit expends energy. This may result in heating the circuit or in turning a motor. Electric power is the rate at which electrical energy is converted into another form such as mechanical energy, heat, or light.

34.11 Electric Power Electric power is equal to the product of current and voltage. electric power = current × voltage If the voltage is expressed in volts and the current in amperes, then the power is expressed in watts. 1 watt = (1 ampere) × (1 volt)

34.11 Electric Power The power and voltage on the light bulb read “60 W 120 V.” The current that would flow through the bulb is: I = P/V = (60 W)/(120 V) = 0.5 A.

34.11 Electric Power A lamp rated at 120 watts operated on a 120-volt line will draw a current of 1 ampere: 120 watts = (1 ampere) × (120 volts). A 60-watt lamp draws 0.5 ampere on a 120-volt line.

34.11 Electric Power A kilowatt is 1000 watts, and a kilowatt-hour represents the amount of energy consumed in 1 hour at the rate of 1 kilowatt. Where electrical energy costs 10 cents per kilowatt-hour, a 100-watt light bulb burns for 10 hours for 10 cents. A toaster or iron, which draws more current and therefore more power, costs several times as much to operate for the same time.

34.11 Electric Power think! How much power is used by a calculator that operates on 8 volts and 0.1 ampere? If it is used for one hour, how much energy does it use?

34.11 Electric Power think! How much power is used by a calculator that operates on 8 volts and 0.1 ampere? If it is used for one hour, how much energy does it use? Answer: Power = current × voltage = (0.1 A) × (8 V) = 0.8 W. Energy = power × time = (0.8 W) × (1 h) = 0.8 watt-hour, or 0.0008 kilowatt-hour.

34.11 Electric Power think! Will a 1200-watt hair dryer operate on a 120-volt line if the current is limited to 15 amperes by a safety fuse? Can two hair dryers operate on this line?

34.11 Electric Power think! Will a 1200-watt hair dryer operate on a 120-volt line if the current is limited to 15 amperes by a safety fuse? Can two hair dryers operate on this line? Answer: One 1200-W hair dryer can be operated because the circuit can provide (15 A) × (120 V) = 1800 W. But there is inadequate power to operate two hair dryers of combined power 2400 W. In terms of current, (1200 W)/(120 V) = 10 A; so the hair dryer will operate when connected to the circuit. But two hair dryers will require 20 A and will blow the 15-A fuse.
