Voltage times amps equals watts. A watt is sometimes called a volt-amp because one volt times one amp equals one watt.

What is the difference between volt-amp and watt, and how do they relate to each other in terms of measuring electrical power?

Volt-amp is a unit of apparent power, which is the combination of voltage and current in an electrical circuit. Watt, on the other hand, is a unit of real power, which is the actual power consumed by a device. The relationship between volt-amp and watt is that watt is the product of volt-amp and power factor, which represents the efficiency of the electrical system. In simple terms, watt is the actual power used by a device, while volt-amp is the total power flowing through the circuit.


How many watts in 845 hz?

There is no way to answer that. A watt is one volt times one amp. A hertz is one cycle per second. There is no correlation between them.There is no way to answer that. A watt is one volt times one amp. A hertz is one cycle per second. There is no correlation between them.

How many amps equal to 1 watt?

That depends on the voltage. One amp flowing at a potential of 1 volt produces 1 watt of power (equal to an energy consumption of 1 joule per second). 4 amps flowing at a voltage of 250 volts produces a kilowatt of power. This would be enough to satisfy the individual needs of a lot of the electrical equipment around the house.


9 amp go in to watts?

Amp(ere) is the unit for current flow. Volt is the unit for electrical tension. Watt is the unit for power Since Watt is Volt x Ampere , there is no way to answer your question. But with your newfound knowledge, you can now calculate yourselves :-)
