Amps times volts = watts Watts measures the rate of power usage. watts times hours = watt hours Watt hours is a measure of the amount of power used.
A multimeter measures current in amperes and potential difference in volts. Wattmeters are used to measure watts and the reading is a combination of current being drawn and the voltage applied. watt = volts x amps
This can be easily calculated with the following formula: Power = Volts * Amps To re-arrange to answer you question: amps = power / volts amps = 500 / 120 = 4.166 amps. Or here is an online calculator: http://www.sengpielaudio.com/calculator-ohm.htm
voltage! measured in volts. current X resistance = voltage simple ohms law
Milli amps is a measure of current whilst watt is a measure of power. The missing element is voltage as the formula is:- Power = Voltage * Amps ie power in Watts is the product of Volts (in Volts) times Amps (in Amps)
Watt volts is not an electrical term. Watts are the product of amps times volts.
A watt is defined as: W=1V*1A=1J/sec=1Nm/sec
Multiply the volts by the amps to find the watts.
Zero volts equal one watt. Watts is the product of amps times volts. Without an amperage the voltage can not be calculated. The time constant has nothing to do with the equation.
Amps, volts and watts are interrelated, but you need to do a little math. Amps * Volts = Watts
The formula you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.
To calculate the amperage of a 40-watt bulb, you need to use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. If the bulb operates at 120 volts (standard for US households), the amperage will be 0.33 amps (40 watts / 120 volts).
It depends on how many Amps (current) are applied to the voltage. Watt = Volts x Amps. e.g. 12 volts @ 5 amps = 60 watts
At 120 volts it will pull 4.166 amps. At 240 volts it will pull 2.08 amps.
P=EI. MEANS POWER EQUALS VOLTAGE TIME AMPERAGE .9 X 3.7 = 3.33 WATTS. 3.33 WATTS FOR ONE HOUR AT 3.7 volts
To calculate the amperage, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. In this case, a 400-watt heater cartridge at 240 volts would draw 1.67 amps.
Watts = Volts x Amps So you need to know the current. This is only for resistive load.
