Charge, Power And Energy (T2) Flashcards
1
Q
How would you calculate charge?
A
Q = I x t
Q = charge in coulombs I = current in amps t = time in seconds
2
Q
How would you calculate power?
A
P = I x V
P = power in watts I = current in amps V = voltage
3
Q
How would you calculate energy?
A
W = V x Q
Or..
W = P x t
W = energy in joules P = power in watts t = time in seconds V = potential difference Q = Charge in coulombs
4
Q
Explain Coulomb’s Law..
A
A law stating that like charges repel and opposite charges attract, with a force proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
5
Q
One coulomb of charge is equal to the charge carried by approximately how many electrons?
A
Six million, million, million electrons
