You use Ohm's Law to make your calculation.
Volts = Amps x Resistance
Amps = Volts / Resistance
1700/120 is 14.169 amps
60 amps
Power = Volts * current [p = E*I]; 120volts*10amps = 1200watts
To calculate amps, you need to know the voltage of the circuit. The formula to convert watts to amps is Amps = Watts / Volts. If the voltage is 120V, then 1200 watts would be equal to 10 amps (1200 watts / 120 volts = 10 amps).
80, all connected in series.
you must divide the 1000 watt vacuum by its volts to get amps. Example: if a 1000 watt vacuum has 120volts then the vacuum gets about 8.3 amps. volts x amps = watts or watts / volts = amps
Since power = current x voltage, you would divide the power (watts) by the voltage. The answer would be 1/10 amps or .10 amps.
To calculate the amperage needed for 1500 watts at 120 volts, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. In this case, it would be 1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 amps. Therefore, you would need a 15 amp breaker for this circuit to accommodate the power load safely.
Multiply the vots by the amps to find the volt-amps. Or divide the volt-amps by the voltage to find the amps.
There are zero amps in a watt. I = W/E. W = A x V. It depends on how many volts there are. Since watts is amps times volts, amps is watts divided by volts. If you had a 120V circuit with 1 watt, there would be 1/120, or 0.00833 amps flowing in that circuit Note: This is the resistive answer, with a power factor of 1. For reactive loads, things change, but the basic question is answered.
.1 amps will give you .1 amps.
Considering an incandescent bulb and using P=VxI P= Power Watts V= Volts I= Current (amperes) I=P/V I=75Watts/120Volts = 0.625 Amperes (A or Amps) Therefore the current through a 75watt bulb that is connected to a 120volt circuit is 0.625 amps.
