Amps, or amperes, are a measure of electrical current; ohms are a measure of electrical resistance. Both are widely used in physics.

Why does a short circuit drain a battery?

You have to remember ohms law Voltage = amp * resistance. Using some basic algebra you can rewrite the equation as amps = voltage / resistance. Since a short circuit has relatively 0 ohms of resistance, this increases both the amps and resistance which uses more battery capacity,power, and creates more heat.


What is the amperage for a household applince with a wattage of 720 and it uses standard of 120 volts?

To calculate amperage, use the formula: Amperage = Wattage / Voltage. For a household appliance with a wattage of 720 and a standard voltage of 120 volts, the amperage would be 6 amps. (720 watts / 120 volts = 6 amps).

How much power does an electric device use if the current is 36.0 amps and the resistance is 3.9 ohms?

To find the power used by the electric device, you can use Ohm's Law and the power formula. First, calculate the voltage (V) using Ohm's Law: ( V = I \times R = 36.0 , \text{amps} \times 3.9 , \text{ohms} = 140.4 , \text{volts} ). Then, use the power formula ( P = V \times I = 140.4 , \text{volts} \times 36.0 , \text{amps} = 5054.4 , \text{watts} ). Thus, the electric device uses approximately 5054.4 watts of power.
