How can you convert amperes in to volts?

Amperes does not convert into volts they are two different values. Become familiar with the following formula and look at the relationships between the values. Volts = Amps x Resistance, Amps = Volts / Resistance and Resistance = Volts / Amps.


How are volts and amperes alike and different?

They are measures of electricity, which makes them similar. But volts are tension and amps are current, which makes them different.


How many watt in amp?

It's watts divided by volts equals amps. Example: 1200 watts at 120 volts is 10 amps. To get the watts if you know the amps, multiply the amps times the volts. 10 amps at 120 volts is 1200 watts.


How many volts it takes to cause a current of 1.95 amps to exist in a 200 watt lamp?

The formula to calculate the relationship between amps, volts and watts is Volts X Amps = Watts or Volts = Watts / Amps or Amps = Watts / Volts therefore; 200 Watts divided by 1.95 Amps is 102.5641 Volts.


If voltage is 12 volts and ohms is 0.5 how many amps in circuit?

Ohm's law: Volts = Amps * Ohms, or Amps = Volts / Ohms 12 volts / 0.5 ohms = 24 amps


What does 1500 watts equal in amps at 120 volts?

To convert watts to amps at 120 volts, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For 1500 watts at 120 volts, the calculation would be: 1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 amps.


How are amps different from watts and volts?

Amps measure the current flowing in a circuit, watts measure power output, and volts measure voltage difference. In an electrical system, volts x amps = watts, so they are related but measure different aspects of electricity. Volts represent the force pushing electrical current, while amps indicate the rate of flow, and watts show the total power consumed or produced.


4 volts is a many watts?

4 volts and how many amps? Watts = amps x volts. It depends on the amount of current (in Amps) flowing at 4 Volts... See Ohms Law: Watts = Volts x Amps If you have 2 Amps flowing at 4 Volts you are dissipating/consuming 8 Watts. If you have 10 Amps flowing at 4 Volts you are dissipating/consuming 40 Watts.


Using 120 volts at 12 amps is the same power as what amps at 220 volts?

6 amps.


How many amps at 12 volts equals 16 amps at 120 volts?

160 amps at 12v.


How many amps at 120 volts equals 16 amps at 12 volts?

160 amps at 12v.


How many amps are in ohms?

It's not that simple. The basic formula is Volts / Ohms = Amps. For 30 Volts you'd get 0.5 Amps, for 60 Volts you'd get 1 Amp, for 120 Volts you'd get 2 Amps.
