Understanding Electrical Мощность
Electrical power is the rate at which electrical energy is transferred or consumed. It's measured in ватты (W), named after James Watt. Мощность tells you how fast energy is being used.
Мощность Формулы
P = V × I - Мощность equals напряжение times current (Watt's Law)
P = I²R - Мощность equals current squared times resistance
P = V²/R - Мощность equals напряжение squared divided by resistance
Мощность против Энергия
Мощность (ватты) is the rate of energy use. Энергия (ватт-часы) is power multiplied by time. Your electricity bill charges for energy (kWh), not power. A 100W bulb running for 10 hours uses 1 kWh.
AC Мощность
In AC circuits with reactive loads, real power P = V × I × cos(θ) where cos(θ) is the power factor. Apparent power S = V × I is measured in VA. Real power is what does useful work.
