  • Power = (voltage) x (current)

Power = (120 V) x (0.5 Amp)

Power = 60 watts

  • Energy = (power) x (time)

Energy = (60 watts) x (60 seconds)

Energy = 3,600 watt-seconds

Energy = 3,600 Joules

Answer:

A.) 3600 joules

Explanation:

Energy or work is power x time. Power is voltage x current. So, work is the product of voltage, current, and time. But time must be measured in seconds. So. the energy is (120)(0.5)(60)= 3600 joules
