**Transcription and Explanation for Educational Website:**---All of the electrical outlets in a room are connected in a single parallel circuit. The circuit is equipped with a 20-A fuse, and the voltage is \( V = 220 \, \text{V} \).**Diagram:**The diagram illustrates a parallel circuit with several components:- A circle labeled "V" represents the voltage source of 220 volts.- A "20-A fuse" is depicted as a small circle within the circuit path.- Several wall outlets are shown in parallel, indicating this distribution of power.**Questions:**(a) What is the maximum total power that can be supplied by the outlets without blowing the fuse?\[ \_\_\_\_\_\_ \, \text{W} \](b) How many \( 1,700 \, \text{W} \) appliances can be plugged into the sockets without blowing the fuse?\[ \_\_\_\_\_\_ \, \text{appliance(s)} \]---**Explanation:**1. **Power Calculation:** - The maximum total power (P) can be calculated using the formula \( P = V \times I \), where \( V \) is the voltage and \( I \) is the current capacity of the fuse. Thus, \( P = 220 \, \text{V} \times 20 \, \text{A} \).2. **Appliance Calculation:** - To determine how many \( 1,700 \, \text{W} \) appliances can be used, divide the maximum total power by the power rating of one appliance.These calculations will help in understanding safe power consumption and load distribution in electrical circuits.
