Electrical energy is converted into heat energy in this case.
An appliance cord is the power cord that must be plugged into an electric outlet before a small electric appliance such as a toaster, steam iron, hand mixer, or radio will work.
Electrical energy, usually. In general, any device plugged into an electrical outlet uses electrical energy.
You cannot. A dryer outlet is wired with 2 hots and 1 neutral. its circuit breaker ampacity rating will be 30 amps. Also the plug is completely different from you standard toast male adaptor. A toaster operates on a single hot and neutral. It will also have a power rating on it. If it were even possible to plug it in, (which its not.) You would burn up your toaster.
No reason not to as long as the wall outlet is the correct voltage. most are designed to be plugged into a 110v outlet.
hi woo
Yes. If you hook up your phone charger, it is using a little bit over 50% power without a phone attached. No. The voltage potential of 120 volts is at the receptacle outlet slots but to make the current flow, a resistive load is needed. In the case above the phone charger is the load. Un-plug the load and no current flow.
Because a toaster does not pull near the current that a cloths dryer does.

Appliance police will not come to your home to determine if your microwave is plugged into a GFCI outlet.The important question is, what is the potential for electrocution with your microwave in the event of a malfunction?If a person could reach the microwave with one hand and a potential ground (sink, concrete floor) with the other hand or a foot, the microwave should be plugged into a GFCI. However... if you research local ordinance and find that your microwave should be plugged into a GFCI, then that's what you should do.If your microwave is plugged into a receptacle on your kitchen countertop it should have GFCI protection.The National Electrical Code (US) states:Section 210.8 Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter Protection for Personnel. (A) Dwelling Units. All 125-volt, single-phase, 15- and 20-ampere receptacles installed in the locations specified in (1) through (8) shall have ground-fault circuit-interrupter protection for personnel. (6) Kitchens - where the receptacles are installed to serve the countertop surfaces.
