a. The lightbulb uses the energy of 960 W or 9.60 kW.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
To determine the energy used by the appliances we need to understand the equation
To determine the energy used, we multiply the power of the appliance with the amount of time it has been used for.
Step 2:
The lightbulb has a power of 60 W and is used for a period of 16 hours.
The energy used by the lightbulb W = 0.96 kW.
The toaster oven has a power of 1,500 W and is used for 0.75 hours.
The energy used by the toaster oven W = 1.125 kW.
