Best Answer

The resistance used in a voltmeter is extremely high when measuring voltage, which is why the current is low (I = E/R).

Does Inductor consume any power in electric circuit?

If it's a pure inductor, no power consumption. However it must be wound using unobtanium wire which has zero resistance, and the core must be vacuum. Air is nearly lossless.

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.
