To calculate the energy transferred (E) to the lamp, we use the formula:

$E = I imes V imes t$

where:

• $I$ is the current in amperes (A),
• $V$ is the voltage in volts (V), and
• $t$ is the time in seconds (s).

Given:

• Current ($I$) = 0.46 A
• Voltage ($V$) = 6.0 V
• Time ($t$) for one minute = 60 s

Substituting the values: $E = 0.46 imes 6.0 imes 60$

Calculating: $E = 0.46 imes 6.0 imes 60 = 165.6 ext{ J}$

Thus, the energy transferred to the lamp in one minute is approximately 170 J when rounded.
