Answer:
P = 240 W
Explanation:
- By definition, the average power is the rate of change of Energy (in Joules) regarding time (in seconds), as follows:
[tex]P = \frac{\Delta E}{\Delta t} (1)[/tex]
- Replacing in (1) by the givens of ΔE = 2, 400 J and Δt = 10 sec, we can find the average power in Watts as follows:
[tex]P = \frac{\Delta E}{\Delta t} =\frac{2,400J}{10s} = 240 W (2)[/tex]
