The circuit breaker will tripped. Details below
<h3>What is power? </h3>
This is defined as the rate in which energy is consumed. Electrical power is expressed mathematically as:
Power (P) = voltage (V) × current (I)
P = IV
<h3>How to determine the total power</h3>
The following data were obtained from the question:
- Power of heater = 1.50×10³ W
- Power of toaster = 750 W
- Power of grill = 1×10³W
- Total power = ?
Total power = power of heat + power of toaster + power of grill
Total power = 1.50×10³ + 750 + 1×10³
Total power = 3250 W
<h3>How to determine whether or not the circuit breaker will tripped</h3>
To determine if the circuit breaker will tripped or not, we shall determine the current used by the appliances. Detail below:
- Total power (P) = 3250 W
- Voltage (V)= 120 V
- Current (I) =?
P = IV
Divide both side by V
I = P / V
I = 3250 / 120
I = 27.08 A
Since the current used by the three appliances (i.e 27.08 A) is greater than the current the circuit breaker (i.e 25 A), can with stand,thus, the circuit breaker will tripped
