Of course it does not use one bit of current. Pencil sharpeners have a switch that activates the current. When it is being used, it uses about .05 of an Amp. When not in use, there is zero current being used, even if plugged in. This is the same for an office stapler, etc.
Hope that helps!

Can you sharpen a pencil with paper on it?
No, it is not recommended to sharpen a pencil with paper still attached to it as it may damage the pencil sharpener and prevent the pencil from being sharpened properly. It is best to remove any paper or plastic wrapping before sharpening a pencil.
When a pencil sharpener is used which moves a greater distance the handle (wheel) or the sharpening mechanism (axle) which exerts greater force?
The handle (wheel) moves a greater distance than the sharpening mechanism (axle). The handle exerts greater force as it must overcome the resistance of the pencil being shaved and the friction in the sharpener.
What energy transformations are in an electric guitar?
electric energy to kinetic energy to heat energy
What are energy transformations from the sunlight to a knife sharpener?
Sunlight is converted to electricity through solar panels, which could then power a knife sharpener. The solar panels capture the sunlight's energy and convert it into electrical energy, which is then used to power the knife sharpener's motor, resulting in the sharpener being powered by sunlight indirectly.

What is john lee love's birthday?
September 26, 1889John Lee Love - Improved Pencil SharpenerJohn Lee Love's invention was a very simple and portable pencil sharpener. The same kind of pencil sharpener that many artists use or that can be found in an office or school room. In John Lee Love's invention the pencil is put into the opening of the sharpener and rotated by hand. It was designed so that the shavings would stay inside the sharpener. It is interesting to note that while the patent drawing depicts the Love Sharpener as being quite plain. John Lee Love wrote that it could also be designed in a very ornate fashion and that his pencil sharpener could also be used as a desk ornament or paperweight.Johm Lee Love's pencil sharpener was patented on November 23, 1897 (U.S. Patent # 594,114).John Lee Love - Improved Plasterer's HawkFour years earlier, John Lee Love created and patented his first invention an improved plasterer's hawk. A plasterer's hawk is a flat square piece of board made of wood or metal, upon which plaster or mortar was placed and then spread by plasterers or masons. Love felt that other plasterer's hawks were too bulky to be portable so he designed one with a detachable handle and a foldable board all made from aluminum. John Lee Love's improved plasterer's hawk was patented on July 9, 1895 (U.S. Patent #
Where was the first ever pencil made?
An unknown inventor, probably 2 500 years ago, in the ancient Roma. Having been lost for centuries, it was independently discovered again in the late 19th century in Nevada, USA, by Joseph Cartwright. Cartwright and his business partner, Joseph Dixon, commericalized the product by embedding it inside of wooden sticks cut from the numerous pine trees on Cartwright's ranch. The Dixon-Ticonderosa pencil was thus born and sold throughout the western United States, and it remains a strong player in the global pencil industry to this day.
