You can't convert amperes to ampere-hours, for the same reason that you can't (for example) convert kilometers to kilometers per hour, meters to square meters, etc. Those are, quite simply, incompatible units. An ampere is a unit of electrical current; an ampere-hour is really a unit of energy: the energy stored when a current of 1 ampere flows during one hour. To actually be an energy unit, a voltage must be assumed; this is usually 12 volt for a car battery.

What is the difference between an amp and a watt?

The relationship is, a watt is the product of amps x volts.


What is difference between amp and joule?

Amp is the unit of Electric Current where as Joule is a unit of energy. 1 Amp is equal to 1 coulomb per second but 1 Joule is equal to 1 newton- metre.


What is drift in op amps?

Drift is the effect of temperature on an operational amplifier (op-amp). Ideally you want zero drift (ie. op-amp is not affected by change in temperature), however this can never be practically achieved.


How long does it take 9 coulombs to pass a current of 3 amps?

1 Amp = 1 Coulomb/sec 3 Amps = 3 Coulomb/sec Time = (9 coul) / (3 coul/sec) = 3 seconds


Two measuremnets to rate capacity of UPS?

1) Rated Protection of the UPS 2) Run Time. Rated protection is usually in KVA or VA (KilliVolt amps for very large UPS or Volt Amps for smaller UPS). This is because UPS typically have multiple outputs like 120V 240V and possibly 12VDC. Some only list WATTS. This assumes the UPS will have only one Voltage output so the Volts X Amps=Watts was already calculated. There is also something called a "Power Factor" that comes in to play. For computers it is ~60% which means if you are backing up a PC it will take more power than you think or the UPS will run for less time than you think because of the power factor. Runtime is usually presented in a chart since it will vary based on the load it is supporting. A battery has a rated Amp/Hour capacity. Amps per hour. You use a fraction of this over time until there is no more energy. Using Ohms Law you can determine the Amps from Watts or KVA/VA. P=IxE or Power ( watts) = Current( amps) x Electrical energy ( Volts) So I (amps) = P(watts) / E ( volts) . There are other factors like the battery charge level, ambient temperature and losses in cabling etc, that affect the run time in amp hours.

How many amps are in 1000 mah?

1000 milliamps (1000 ma) is equal to 1 amp or 1a. So if you mean ma, than the answer is one. But, a milliamphour, or mah, does not equal any amp or amps. That is because an amps current is instantaneous, but an amphour is an amp delivered for one hour, or 1/10th amp delivered for 10 hours.

What does 1.5 watts equal to amp using 12 volts?

volts times amps equal watts. So 12 volts times ? amp equals 1.5 watts. The current is 1.5/12 amps, which is 1/8 amp.


How many amps is equal to 1 kilo volt amp?

A volt-amp or VA is equivalent to watts, provided the voltage and amperage are in phase. So 1 kilo volt amp is the same as 1 kilowatt. Wattage, or power, is equal to volts times amps. So the original question is effectively nonsense. The number of amps depends on the voltage. If the voltage is 1000 volts, then there's 1 amp in 1 kilo volt amp. If the voltage is 1 volt, then there's 1000 amps. If there's 50 volts, then the amperage is 20 amps. And so on.
