Question

an electric kettle rated at 220v,22kw works for three hours .find the current drawn and energy consumed

Open in App
Solution

Power, P = 22 kW = 22000 W

Voltage, V = 220 V

Time, t = 3 h = 3 × 3600 = 10800 s

So, the energy consumed is = 22000 × 10800 = 237600000 J

The current drawn is, I = P/V = 22000/220 = 100 A
