In parallel circuit resistance goes with an inverse relation as:

1/Rn = 1/R1+1/R2+1/R3.....

so Power P = V2/R will follow the same proportionality only.

How do you decide which appliances can be used in a circuit without overloading it?

each appliance should have a rating label showing the amps or watts used, Add up these figures to see if they exceed the capacity of the circuit. Amps =watts/voltage


When you have watts in a series circuit do you add up the total or is it the reciprocal?

The power dissipated by the complete circuit, no matter whether it's a series or parallel one, is the simple sum of the power dissipated by each component of the circuit.


How many watts in 120v-60Hz-12A?

To calculate watts, you can use the formula: Watts = Volts × Amps. For a 120V, 60Hz, 12A circuit, it would be: 120V × 12A = 1,440 watts. Therefore, the circuit uses 1,440 watts.

How many watts is in 2 amps?

To calculate the watts from amps, you need to know the voltage of the circuit. The formula to calculate watts is: Watts = Amps x Volts. So, without knowing the voltage in the circuit, it is not possible to accurately determine the wattage from just knowing the amperage.
