ARCHITECTURE Lecture Notes - Lecture 4: Electromotive Force, Watt, Ampere
Document Summary
The si unit of electric charge equal to the quantity of electricity along the conductor by a current of one ampere in one second transferred. The si unit equal to one joule per second or to the power represented by a current of one ampere flowing across a potential difference of one volt. An amount of power especially the power required to operate an electrical device or appliance, expressed in watts. A unit of power equal to 1,000 watts. A unit of energy transferred or expanded by one kilowatt in one hour a common unit of electric power consumption. The work required to move a unit charge from a reference point to a designed point. Potential difference or electromotive force expressed in volts: analogous to pressure in water flow. The rate of flow of electric charge in a circuit per unit time measured in amperes.
