Question
The power supplied to a typical black-and-white television set is 90 W when the set is connected
to 120 V.
(a) How much electrical energy does this set consume in 1 hour?
(b) A color television set draws about 2.5 A when connected to 120 V. How much time is
required for it to consume the same energy as the black-and- white model consumes in 1 hour?
