Watts and Volts are two distinct types of measurement.

∙ 12y agoOhms law will tell you watts equals volts times amps: 115 x 5 = 575
Volts don't make power. Watts do. Watts = (volts) x (amps) 1 horsepower = 746 watts
1 watt = 1 amp * 1 volt So.... In a house: 5 amps * 115 volts = 575 watts In a car: 5 amps * 12 volts = 60 watts
The number of watts measures the power, and Ohm's laws requires us to know the current as well as the voltage to determine the power.P = i x eFor example, if the fridge draws 10 amps at 115 volts, the power is 1150 watts.AnswerThe answer is that it depends on the fridge. Look at the nameplate information for your particular fridge; that's where you will find your answer.
watts = volts x amps x power factor
Divide the watts by the volts, so 32 / 115 is the answer in amps.
978 watts
To find the power in watts, multiply the amperage (60 amps) by the voltage (115 volts). So, 60 amps * 115 volts = 6900 watts.

You get watts from volts x amps, so 115 x2.5 = 287.5 watts
1840
To find the number of amps in a circuit with 115 volts and a power rating in watts, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. So, if you have a device that runs at 115 volts and consumes 575 watts, the amperage would be approximately 5 amps (575 watts / 115 volts = 5 amps).
Ohms law will tell you watts equals volts times amps: 115 x 5 = 575
Watts = Volts x Amps x Power factor For an AC Unit I am guessing that your PF = .75 so we have 115 x 9.2 x .75 = 793.5 Watts.
To answer this you have to know how many volts will be used. If you know the voltage then you can calculate the current by dividing voltage into wattage. For example; an electric heater rated at 700 watts when plugged into a 115 v outlet will draw 700/115 = 6.08 amps of current.
Watts is determined by multiplying amps (found on tag with serial number or on data plate on compressor) by volts (example 115 volts times 9 amps= 1035 watts)
There really is no fixed answer. Amps are a measure of current, while watts are a measure of work. To get the answer, you need to know either how many volts you are dealing with, or how much resistance; the relationship is W= V*I (where I is the current in amps). That said, for a typical 120 volt household current, the number of watts would be 180.
