  • Calculating Current in an Electric Blanket: A Simple Guide
    Here's how to calculate the current:

    Understanding the Relationship

    * Power (P): Measured in Watts (W)

    * Voltage (V): Measured in Volts (V)

    * Current (I): Measured in Amperes (A)

    The relationship between these is: P = V * I

    Calculation

    1. Rearrange the formula to solve for current (I): I = P / V

    2. Plug in the values: I = 140 W / 120 V

    3. Calculate: I ≈ 1.17 A

    Answer: The current in the electric blanket is approximately 1.17 Amperes.
