Power in Everyday Objects

*See work in notes

For this assignment, we were asked to estimate the amount of power that everyday items use. These were the numbers I came up with:

Power required for:
Light: 2-8 watts based off of previous knowledge
Tv: 100-300 watts, assuming that it takes up the same amount of power as a computer does.
Computer: 100-300 watts according to the computer adapter
Car: 20,000 watts
Motorcycle:10,000 watts
Fridge: 700 watts
Oven: 700 watts
Radio: 15 watts
