Question

1. jay sees that a fan is also plugged into the desktop outlet box. jay looks at the fan’s electric info, whose image is below. what is the total amps for the drill plus fan if both are on? image of fans label: model no fs40-8lir, stand fan, gd midea, environment appliances, mfg co., ltd., made in china, dec 2009, 120v 0.37a 60hz 4) cindy is in a hotel and needs to iron. the lamp’s outlet is the most convenient, whose image is below. how many amps does the outlet text cut off options: 0.37a, 4.5a, 4.87a

Explanation:

To solve the problem of finding the total amps for the drill plus fan, we need to know the amp rating of the drill and the fan. From the image, the fan uses 0.37A. Let's assume the drill uses 4.5A (as one of the options is 4.87A which is 4.5 + 0.37).

Step 1: Identify the amp rating of the fan

From the fan's label, the current (amps) is 0.37A.

Step 2: Identify the amp rating of the drill

Assuming the drill uses 4.5A (a common drill amp rating, and since 4.5 + 0.37 = 4.87 which is one of the options).

Step 3: Calculate the total amps

To find the total amps when both the drill and the fan are on, we add their individual amp ratings.
\[
\text{Total Amps} = \text{Amp rating of drill} + \text{Amp rating of fan}
\]
\[
\text{Total Amps} = 4.5\,\text{A} + 0.37\,\text{A} = 4.87\,\text{A}
\]

Answer:

4.87A
