How many joules of energy are supplied.

[AHUGEMUSHROOM]

Homework Statement

How many coulombs of electricity pass through a lamp when a current of 5A flows for 3 minutes. Answer: 900C
In this time 27,000 joules of electrical energy is converted into heat and light. How many joules of energy are supplied by each coulomb.

Homework Equations

V=W/q
E=Pt
P=VI

The Attempt at a Solution

27000/900 = 30V
P=30 x 5 = 150W
E= 150 x 180 = 2700

Have I done this correctly?

Your first part is correct, not sure what you're trying to do with all those other equations listed though to calculate how much energy is supplied by each coulomb. It's a lot easier than what you're trying to do.
