Answer:

A volt is the measurement of the amount of electrical push or force in a circuit. The wiring in a typical house carries 115-120 volts of electrical force.

A watt is the measurement of power, or how fast work is done. Power is measured in kilowatts (1kW = 1000 watts).

An ampere is the unit used to measure how much current flows through a given part of a circuit in one second. In most houses, circuit breakers are designed to allow 15 or 20 amperes of current to pass through a circuit safely.

The three basic units of measurement-volts, watts, and amperes are related to each other. If you know two of these measurements, you can use this relationship to find the other measurement. Suppose a small appliance uses 240 watts at the normal household voltage of 120. To find the amperes needed, you divide the number of watts by the number of volts.

Formula: watts ÷ volts = amps
