  2. Volt-ampere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volt-ampere

    1 kg⋅m 2 ⋅s −3. The volt-ampere (SI symbol: VA, [1] sometimes V⋅A or V A) is the unit of measurement for apparent power in an electrical circuit. It is the product of the root mean square voltage (in volts) and the root mean square current (in amperes). [2] Volt-amperes are usually used for analyzing alternating current (AC) circuits.

  3. Audio power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_power

    Audio power. Audio power is the electrical power transferred from an audio amplifier to a loudspeaker, measured in watts. The electrical power delivered to the loudspeaker, together with its efficiency, determines the sound power generated (with the rest of the electrical power being converted to heat). Amplifiers are limited in the electrical ...

  4. Watt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watt

    0.7375621 ft⋅lbf/s = 0.001341022 hp. The watt (symbol: W) is the unit of power or radiant flux in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 1 joule per second or 1 kg⋅m 2 ⋅s −3. [1][2][3] It is used to quantify the rate of energy transfer. The watt is named in honor of James Watt (1736–1819), an 18th-century Scottish inventor ...

  5. Ampere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampere

    The ampere (/ ˈæmpɛər / AM-pair, US: / ˈæmpɪər / AM-peer; [1][2][3] symbol: A), [4] often shortened to amp, [5] is the unit of electric current in the International System of Units (SI). One ampere is equal to 1 coulomb (C) moving past a point per second. [6][7][8] It is named after French mathematician and physicist André-Marie ...

  6. Electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power

    Definition. Electric power, like mechanical power, is the rate of doing work, measured in watts, and represented by the letter P. The term wattage is used colloquially to mean "electric power in watts". The electric power in watts produced by an electric current I consisting of a charge of Q coulombs every t seconds passing through an electric ...

  7. Volt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volt

    At that time, the volt was defined as the potential difference [i.e., what is nowadays called the "voltage (difference)"] across a conductor when a current of one ampere dissipates one watt of power. The "international volt" was defined in 1893 as 1 ⁄ 1.434 of the emf of a Clark cell. This definition was abandoned in 1908 in favor of a ...

  8. Amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplifier

    Amplifier. A McIntosh stereo audio amplifier with output power of 50 watts per channel used in home component audio systems in the 1970s. [1] Amplification means increasing the amplitude (voltage or current) of a time-varying signal by a given factor, as shown here. The graph shows the input (blue) and output voltage (red) of an ideal linear ...

  9. Power over Ethernet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_over_Ethernet

    Power over Ethernet. In this configuration, an Ethernet connection includes Power over Ethernet (PoE) (gray cable looping below), and a PoE splitter provides a separate data cable (gray, looping above) and power cable (black, also looping above) for a wireless access point (WAP). The splitter is the silver and black box in the middle between ...
