Answer

1028.6 W or approximately 1 kW

Work Step by Step

Power (P), Resistance (R) and Voltage (V) are connected by the formula, P=$\frac{V^{2}}{R}$ where V= 120 Volts and R=14 $\Omega$ Substituting the values of V and R in the formula, P is found to be 1028.6 Watts This can be approximated to be 1 kW
