Household electrical outlets operate at 120 Volts. A microwave oven is rated at "120V, 1.0 kW"
meaning that if you plug the oven into an electrical outlet, the appliance will consume 1.0 × 10³ Joules of
electrical energy per second. How much current does a microwave oven draw when it is plugged in and
turned on?
