Best Answer

The equation that you are looking for is I = E/R. Amps = Volts/Resistance.

How much amps in a 3 v circuit?

This cannot be answered without knowing what size load you are connecting to the circuit. In the absence of a load, with a dead short, you will get a flow of amps at the maximum that the power supply can provide. I have no way of knowing what that is.


How much Ampere when volt 415?

That would depend on the power output (watts) of the circuit. Volts times the Amperage equals the Wattage of the circuit. You do not have enough information in your question. Volts is the force applied to move the electrons in the circuit, and amps are a measure of the quantity of electrons moved through the circuit over time. Thus a circuit of 415 volts and 1 ampere will deliver 415 watt-hours of power. Yet a circuit of 1 volt at 415 amps will deliver the same 415 watt-hours of power, but with less force.


120 volts equal how many watts?

It depends upon how much amperage is utilized in a circuit. A circuit with 2 amps of current and 120 volts would consume 240 watts of power. The same circuit with 4 amps would produce 480 watts. You have to have 2 values of Ohm's law to figure out the third. See "Ohm's law" on the internet for more information on how circuit values are determined.


How much power flows through a circuit with 1 amp and 120 volts?

120 power flows through a circuit with 1 amp and 120 volts.


How do you do different test on automotive cars using a multimeter?

Ohms=resistance in the wiring. Volts=your power. Amps=how much power u got;)

How much current flows in a 12-watt radio connected to a 120-volt circuit?

Since power = current x voltage, you would divide the power (watts) by the voltage. The answer would be 1/10 amps or .10 amps.


How much power is consumed by a 120voltage parallel circuit that contains a 100 ohm's load and an 80 ohm's load and draws 2.7 amp's what is the wattage?

A 120 v circuit would supply 120 v to both resistors if they are in parallel, which is 120/100 amps into a 100 ohm load, and 120/80 amps into am 80 ohms load, which totals up to 2.7 amps, so the total power is 120x2.7 watts or 324 watts.


What is difference between 2000W and 1500W and how to find out how much powerelectricity each consumes?

To find the power will depend on the voltage the item uses. Assuming a 120 volt circuit divide the wattage by the voltage, this gives the amps used. 2000w / 120v = 16.67 amps. 1500w/ 120v = 12.5 amps used.


Why not to overload a socket?

Yes! A socket is a part of a circuit. Usually there are a number of sockets and lights associated with a specific circuit. The wiring of the circuit and the circuit breaker are limited to a specific amperage. If you exceed the amperage, you can blow the breaker. If the wire is rated for 15 amps and the circuit breaker is rated for 20 amps, the wires can overheat and cause fires.


How much current will flow in a circuit with a 12 VDC source connected to a 1K load?

In a 12VDC circuit with a 1K load, there will be 12ma of current. (Ohm's law: Volts = Amps * Ohms, so Amps = Volts / Ohms.)


How can you determine how much power a circuit will generate if you know the voltage and resistance?

Ohms law provides the formula to determine any of the three components in a circuit voltage=E Resistance=R and Current=I so with any two you can figure out the third:I=E/RE=IxRR=E/ISo to find I use I=E/R so you divide the resistance into the voltage and you have the current(in amps) or power.Power can be found using the equation: power = (voltage)2 / resistance.The Equation is PIE where P is power in watts. I is current in amps. E is voltage in volts. P equals I times E. 240 watts is created with 120 volts and 2 amps of current
