Power is as easy as PIE (P=IxE). Watts equals the current squared time the resistance. Assuming a pure resistive load; they are equal. To answer the question precisely, one DC watt equals one AC watt.

∙ 14y agoWatts are watts, the conversion is already done in the way AC voltage is measured.

What is the cheapest way of converting ac to dc voltage?
Cheapest way is by Rectifiers.
Is converting ac to watts and dc to watts the same watts equals volts times amps?
Yes, watts is still volts times amps, for both ac and dc circuits. The complexity lies in the phase angle between voltage and current. If the circuit is purely resistive, the phase angle will be zero. If the circuit is capacitive or inductive, the the phase angle will vary, depending on frequency and on how much capacitive or inductive reactance there is. The difference comes into play when you consider true versus apparent power.
Can you use metal halide bulb in Uhp ballast?
It depends if its AC or DC, you have to match the Watts and the AC/DC.. so for example a 150watt UHP AC ballast will work with a 150watt AC metal halide bulb. dont take my word on this though, this is 2nd hand information.
Why diodes are used after center tapped transformer in dc to ac inverter?
Diodes are used after a center-tapped transformer in a DC to AC inverter to rectify the alternating current (AC) output of the transformer into pulsating direct current (DC). This rectified voltage is then smoothed using filters to produce a more stable DC waveform. The diodes act as one-way valves, allowing current to flow in only one direction, thus converting the AC voltage into a pulsating DC voltage.

What is the formula to convert AC rms to DC through a bridge rectifier?
Ac x 1.4 -1.4=dc
What AC actually means in AC adapter?
Alternating Current ... like in most households.The adapter is either converting DC to AC or vice versa.
Why cant you generate DC directlyinstead of generating AC and converting it to DC?
Yes, by using a dynamo (which produces d.c.) instead of an alternator.
