AP Physics 2
11.4 Electric Power
11.1 Electric Current
A household appliance is connected to a standard \(120\text{ V}\) electrical outlet and dissipates power at a constant rate of \(192\text{ W}\). Assuming that the current through the appliance consists entirely of elementary charge carriers of magnitude \(e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\text{ C}\), how many electrons pass through a cross section of the appliance's power cord each second?
