Answer:

Part a)

P = 1200 Watt

Part b)

P = 480 W

Part c)

\frac{E_{bd}}{E_{vc}} = 5 : 2

Explanation:

Part a)

Power consumed by blow dryer is given as

P = iV

here supply voltage is given as

V = 120 volts

current rating of blow dryer is given as

i = 10 A

P = (120 V)(10 A)

P = 1200 W

Part b)

Power consumed by vacuum cleaner is given as

P = iV

here supply voltage is given as

V = 120 volts

current rating of vacuum cleaner is given as

i = 4 A

P = (120 V)(4 A)

P = 480 W

Part c)

Energy consumed in a given interval of time is given as

Energy = power \times time

now we have to find the ratio of energy consumed in time interval of 11 minutes

so we have

\frac{E_{bd}}{E_{vc}} = \frac{P_{bd} t}{P_{vc} t}

now we have

\frac{E_{bd}}{E_{vc}} = \frac{1200 W\times 11 min}{480 W \times 11 min}

\frac{E_{bd}}{E_{vc}} = 5 : 2
