Calculating power Flashcards
1
Q
Power formula
A
power=energy transfer (Work done) / time
power is measured in watts (W)
work done is measured in joules (J)
time is measured in seconds (s)
OR
power is measured on kilowatt-hours(kWh)
energy is measured in kilowatts (kW)
Time is measured in hours (H)
2
Q
Energy transferred formula
A
Energy transferred (work done) = charge x potential difference
E=Q xV
Energy is measured in Joules(J)
Charge is measured in coulombs(C)
Potential difference is measured in volts(V)
