Liken volt and amp to a water in a pipe. Voltage is the water pressure in the pipe and amperage is the water flow through the pipe. They are two completely different electrical units.

The unit to measure current is the volt?

The unit of current is the ampere. The unit of potential difference, or electromagnetic force is the volt.


Potential difference is measured in a unit called 1 a volt 2 a Watt 3 an Ampere 4 an ohm?

The answer is volt.


What if your tutor tells you than an ampere and a volt really measure the same thing?

An ampere and a volt do not measure the same thing. Ampere measures electric current flow, while volt measures electrical potential difference or voltage. Having a clear understanding of the difference between these units is essential in understanding electricity.


Can I use 4.5 volt 2 ampere adaptor instead of 5 volt 2 ampere?

yes you can.


What is the difference between miliamps and amps?

A miliamp is one one thousandth of an ampere. So, the difference is that a miliamp is much smaller than an ampere.


Is The units of electric current is the volt?

NO! (the units of electric current is Amperes).


What is is kva?

kVA is kilo-volt-ampere, which is 1000 x volt x ampere. kVA is the unit of apparent power in AC circuits.


What is difference between KVA and MVA?

The volt ampere (V.A) is the unit of measurement of apparent power.Apparent power is the vector sum of a circuit's true power and reactive power.A kV.A (not 'KVA') is the symbol for kilovolt ampere, whereas MV.A (not'MVA') is the symbol for megavolt ampere. So the latter is one-thousand times greater than the former!

What is definition of one ohm?

One ohm is the SI unit of electrical resistance, representing the resistance of a conductor in which a current of one ampere is produced by a potential difference of one volt. It is named after the German physicist Georg Simon Ohm.


One volt is equal to?

One volt is the electric potential required to generate one ampere through one ohm. One volt is the electric potential involved when one ampere generates one watt of power. One volt is one joule per coulomb.
