Best Answer

ohms is a measure of resistance(R) in a circuit. Watts is a measure of the power(P), in this case lets assume it is the power used by the resistive element (lamp, heater etc).

Power(watts)=Current(Amps)x Current(amps) x Resistance(ohms)

or

Resistance (ohms)=Power(W)/(current x current)

Amps are a measurement of current, Ohms are a measurement of resistance and Watts are a measurement of Power.

Amps=A

Ohms= Ω

Watts=W

How do you find OHM?

Ohms can be found by using these formulas. Ohms = Volts/Amps, Ohms = (Volts (squared))/Watts, Ohms = Watts/(Amps (squared)).


How do you work out the current?

There are three formulas that you can use. Amps = Volts/Ohms Amps = Watts/Volts Amps = sq root of Watts/Ohms


Formula for watts and amps?

power in watts = voltage in volts x current in amps. or power in watts = current in amps x (resistance in ohms) squared i think what you meant was power in watts =(current in amps)squared x resistance in ohms


What is a difference between vollage and watt?

Watts = Volts / Ohms Watts = Volts x Amps


Amps to watts?

Watts = Amps x Volts Amps = Watts / Volts you only need to know two of the three to work out the other so 230 volts at 10 amps gives 2300 Watts (2.3 kW) 2.3kW at 230 volts draws 10 Amps


How do I figure watts if I know voltage and ohms?

Volts time amps equals watts so watts divided by volts equal amps.


What is the formula to find watts?

There are several ways to find watts; volts x amps = watts or resistance (ohms) divided by amps squared or volts squared divided by amps. You can search for Ohm's Law to find examples of these different methods and sample calculations.


4 volts is a many watts?

4 volts and how many amps? Watts = amps x volts. It depends on the amount of current (in Amps) flowing at 4 Volts... See Ohms Law: Watts = Volts x Amps If you have 2 Amps flowing at 4 Volts you are dissipating/consuming 8 Watts. If you have 10 Amps flowing at 4 Volts you are dissipating/consuming 40 Watts.


What is the power of a parallel circuit with a resistance of 1000 ohms and a current of 0.03 amps?

.9 watts.


How do you work out resistance?

Using Ohms law, the resistance can be calculated by using the following formulas. R = Watts/Amps (squared). R = Volts (squared)/Watts. R = Volts/Amps.


What is the wattage of 115 volts and 5 amps?

Ohms law will tell you watts equals volts times amps: 115 x 5 = 575


If you have 500 ohms and 2000 watts how do you find amps?

The formula you are looking for is I = sq root of W/R.
