ELECTRICAL ENERGY & POWER

The power of an appliance is...

• the amount of energy transferred per second

• the amount of voltage going through it

• the amount of charge that passes through per second

• None

Electrical power can be calculated using

• Resistance x Voltage

• Voltage x Current

• Voltage ÷ Current

• Voltage + Current

Watts is the same as...

• Voltage per second

• Current per second

• Joules per second

• all of these
