If you have 14 watts, you have 14 watts of power. We measure electromotive force (EMF), which is commonly called voltage, in volts. EMF (voltage) is the force that will drive electron current flow, which is measured in amps. Simply put, power is current times voltage, or, said another way, watts is amps times volts. If you have 14 watts, you could have 14 amps at 1 volt, 7 amps at 2 volts, 2 amps at 7 volts, or any other combination of current and voltage with a product of 14. You may have picked up that because watts is amps times volts, we can say that a watt is a volt-amp. Extending that thinking, 14 watts is 14 volt-amps. There is no way to write 14 watts in volts, at least not without having a bit more information.

How you find ups watts?

It is expressed in Volt-Amperes not Watts.


The primary coil of a step-up transformer draws 110 W. What is the power provided by the secondary coil?

When we look at transformers, we'll generally see that watts in will equal watts out. Said another way, volt-amps in equal volt-amps out. There is a simple relationship between the turns ratio between the primary and secondary and the voltages between those two windings. From there, it's a hop, skip and a jump to figuring out currents. In a one to one transformer, volts in equal volts out. Current in will equal current out, too. Watts in will equal watts out. In a step down transformer with, say, a 10:1 ratio, 120 volts in will produce 12 volts out. And a 1 amp secondary current will appear as a 0.1 amp current in the primary. The 120 volts x 0.1 amps = 12 watts. And the 12 volts x 1 amp = 12 watts. Volt amps in equals volt-amps out, and power in equals power out. Simple and easy. If you are using a step up transformer in, say, a 110 volt to 220 volt application, 110 watts in the primary at the 110 volts will be 1 amp. In the secondary side, 220 volts will appear and 0.5 amps will be the current flow. The 220 volts times the 0.5 amps is 110 watts, as asked about. The secondary has twice the voltage and half the current of the primary side. There are 110 watts in and 110 watts out. Again, simple and easy.


How many watts in a 115 volt refrigerator?

How many Amps is the fridge pulling? Multiply the Amps by the 120V circuit you're plugging into and you'll get your Watts.

How many watts does 115 volts equal im trying to find out how many amps does a 115 volt is equal to?

Watts is found by multiplying the volts by the amps. Normally a supply is provided at a fixed voltage, and the amount of current that is drawn depends on how many watts the equpiment requires.


How many watts in a Kva?

A VA is a volt-ampere, or volt-amp, and a kilo (K) is one thousand. This makes a KVA a kilovolt-ampere, or kilovolt-amp. If we have 1,000 volt-amps, and one volt times one amp is equal to one watt (W), which it is, 1,000 volt-amps is equal to 1,000 watts, or 1 KW. All that said, 1 KVA is equal to 1 KW.Sometimes in an ac system, the watts is less than the volts times the amps, and in that case the watts is equal to the volts times the amps times the power factor. The power factor is less than one. The power factor for a typical electric motor is 0.7, so then there are only 700 watts in a kVA.

How many watts does a 36 volt battery charger use?

Not sure about how many Watts your 36 volt charger uses, but you can find out by this formula... Volts X Amps = Watts.


4 ohms equals how many watts?

Ohms does not equal watts. You need to know what voltage is across the resistor to determine how many watts it is drawing or how many watts the resistor should be rated for.Power is the voltage across the resistor SQUARED divided by the resistance. If this 4 ohm resistor has 12 volts across it then the watts power is (12 x 12) / 4 = 36 watts.1 Watt equals 1 Volt times 1 Amp.
