Calculate the electrical energy use of the microwave in 120 V circuit has 7.5 A current flow, if it used for 0.05 hours

162 KJ

Explanation:

The electrical energy can be calculated using the formula

E = V×I×t

Where, V= voltage = 120 V

I is current in ampere = 7.5 A and t is time in seconds

1 hour = 3600 sec

Therefore, 0.05 hour = 3600×0.05 = 180 sec

Substitute the values in above equation find electrical power

E = 120×7.5×180

= 162000 J

= 162 KJ

Therefore, the electrical energy use of the microwave = 162 KJ
