in ac circuits

power,P=VICOS@

@ is the angle between voltage and current.

in dc

P=VI

V is the voltage

I is the current.

Power (in Watts) is current (A) x voltage (V)

What does the power vs voltage graph reveal about the relationship between power consumption and voltage in a circuit?

The power vs voltage graph shows that power consumption in a circuit is directly proportional to voltage. This means that as voltage increases, power consumption also increases.


What is the role of voltage in an electrical circuit?

Voltage is related to energy by charge. Power equals voltage times current (amperes), and energy equals voltage times charge (coulombs).An ampere is 1 coulomb of charge moving per second.A watt (power) is 1 joule of work done (or energy transferred) per second.


What initiated the change into ac system from dc system?

The need for more and more power. In a fixed voltage system like DC, power is proportional to current, and current is related to conductor size. In order to have more power, you had to have larger conductors, and it was becoming unwieldy. With AC, we could use transformers to step up the voltage. Power is now proportional to both current and voltage, but current is still only related to conductor size, which means that with higher voltage, you could transfer more power with smaller conductors. Transformers would step up the voltage at the substation for transmission and distribution, while transformers on the poles would step it back down for small groups of services.
