Answer: 97,212,960,000 J/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Power = Energy ÷ Time

So,

Energy = Time × Power

First convert 3.6 hrs into seconds

3.6 × 60

216 mins

216 × 60 = 12,960 seconds.

Convert 7501kW into Watts.

7501 × 1000 = 7,501,000

Substitute the values:

Energy = 12,960 × 7,501,000

Energy = 97,212,960,000 Joules per second.

Big number. But you did leave a 7501 kilo watt appliance running for over 3 hours..
