The definition of the ampere is : 'that constant current that, if maintained in two straight parallel conductors of infinite length and negligible cross-sectional area and placed one metre apart in a vacuum, would produce between them a force equal to 2 pi x 10^-7 newtons per unit length'.

How do you solve watts to amperes?

Amps = Watts/Volts, or Amps = Sq Root of Watts/Resistance.


How many watts is 8.6 amperes?

To calculate the total power consumption in watts, you can multiply the current in amperes by the voltage in volts. If the voltage is not known, you cannot directly convert amperes to watts.


How you find ups watts?

It is expressed in Volt-Amperes not Watts.


How many volts can you get from 260 watts?

It depends on how many amperes there are. If you have 1 amperes, then you get 260 watts. If you have 260 amperes, then you have 67,600 watts. If you have 0.001 amperes, then you have 0.26 watts. Its just watts = volts times amperes. Of course, the limiting factor is the available power behind the 260 volts, but you did not say anything about that.


What power is consumed in a dc circuit of 28volts and 4 amps?

Power is voltage times amperes, so 28 volts and 4 amperes is 112 watts. The reason for this is that voltage is actually joules per coulomb, and amperes is actually coulombs per second. Multiplying them together produces joules per second, which is the definition of watts.


What are the watts on a 1999 Ford Escort?

Volts X amperes = watts.


Do amperes have more power than watts?

You can't really compare that. Amperes and watts measure completely different things. On the other hand, any time there are amperes, there are also watts. The relationship is:P = I^2 x R or in units: watts = amperes squared x resistance


What the relationship between amperage voltage and power.?

The relationship between amperes, volts, and watts is... watts = amperes * volts Confirming by looking at the fundamental units involved... watts (joules per second) = amperes (coulombs per second) * volts (joules per coulomb)


What is the relationship between amperage voltage and power.?

The relationship between amperes, volts, and watts is... watts = amperes * volts Confirming by looking at the fundamental units involved... watts (joules per second) = amperes (coulombs per second) * volts (joules per coulomb)


How many amps is 55kw at 460 volts?

To calculate the amperage, use the formula: Amperes = Watts / Volts. In this case, 55 kW is 55,000 watts. So, Amperes = 55,000 watts / 460 volts ≈ 119.57 amps.


How many watts are consumed by a light bulb if 1.2 amperes are measured when 12 volts are applied?

The power consumed by the light bulb can be calculated using the formula P = I * V, where P is power in watts, I is current in amperes, and V is voltage in volts. In this case, the power consumed is 1.2 amperes * 12 volts = 14.4 watts.


How many watts are consumed by a light if 1.2 amperes are measured when 12 voltages are applied?

14.4 watts
