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.

Do you measure amps on 220 volt electric motor by measuring one line or both and combining total of the two?

In a single phase 220 volt electric motor just measure one line. That already represents your line current. That line current is equal to your total current circulating in your motor.


Is one volt enouph pressure for 1 ohm of resistance?

one volt applied across one ohm of resistance causes a current flow of one


You are measuring 480 volt from phase to phase and 280 volt phase to ground but one leg measures 440 volt phase to ground why?

Check for a blown fuse in one of the phase legs.


OHms you are familiar with but what is meant by MHOS in Electronics parlance?

ohm (ōm)n. A unit of electrical resistance equal to that of a conductor in which a current of one ampere is produced by a potential of one volt across its terminals.mho (mō)The SI derived unit of electrical conductance, equal to one ampere per volt. It is equivalent to the reciprocal of the ohm unit. Also called siemens.AnswerThe mho is an obsolete unit of measurement for conductance, which is the reciprocal of resistance. It has been replaced, in SI, by the siemens (symbol: S).


If an EMF of 1 volt causes a current of 1 ampere what is the resistance of the material through which the current is flowing?

1/1 = 1ohm MR. volta [italian] Determined that it would take 1 volt to pass 1 amp trough a 1 ohm resistor MR ampere [ french] Ditermined that it would take 1 ohm and 1 volt to pass one ampere MR ohms [english] determinaed that for 1 volt and one ampere the resistance must be 1 ohm. mr watts determined that the product of volts x ampere will equal one watt [power]

How many watts in a Kva?

A VA is a volt-ampere, or volt-amp, and a kilo (K) is one thousand. This makes a KVA a kilovolt-ampere, or kilovolt-amp. If we have 1,000 volt-amps, and one volt times one amp is equal to one watt (W), which it is, 1,000 volt-amps is equal to 1,000 watts, or 1 KW. All that said, 1 KVA is equal to 1 KW.Sometimes in an ac system, the watts is less than the volts times the amps, and in that case the watts is equal to the volts times the amps times the power factor. The power factor is less than one. The power factor for a typical electric motor is 0.7, so then there are only 700 watts in a kVA.


What is the basic metric measurement unit that is equal to 1 Volt Amperes?

1 volt x 1 ampere = 1 watt, a unit of power. One watt is also the same as one joule / second.

Is a volt a lot of energy?

A volt is not a unit of energy. It is a unit of something that in English is usually called "voltage". It is really about electric potential. One volt is equal to one joule/coulomb; that means that if an electric charge of 1 coulomb goes through a potential difference of 1 volt, it will either gain or lose 1 joule of energy.


Does 120 to 240 volt equal 20 amps?

no


Will a 14 volt charger hurt a 18 volt battery?

Yes, an 18 volt charger can damage a 14 volt battery. This is because the wattage for the battery needs to be equal to the wattage of the charger.


Define electron volt?

An electron volt (eV) is a unit of energy equal to the energy gained by an electron as it moves through a potential difference of one volt. It is commonly used in atomic and subatomic physics to describe the energy of particles at the atomic and molecular scale.
