Whats the difference between watts, amps, and volts?

Physics

daser333 [38]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Watts is Power (W)

Amps is current (A)

Volts is Voltage (v)

Explanation:

Watts is a derived unit of 1 joule per second, and is used to quantify the rate of energy transfer. In SI (standard international) base units, the watt is described as kg⋅m²⋅s⁻³, which can be demonstrated to be coherent by dimensional analysis

An ampere is the unit used to measure electric current. Current is a count of the number of electrons flowing through a circuit. One amp is the amount of current produced by a force of one volt acting through the resistance of one ohm

Volt is the electrical unit of voltage or potential difference (symbol: V). One Volt is defined as energy consumption of one joule per electric charge of one coulomb. 1V = 1J/C. One volt is equal to current of 1 amp times resistance of 1 ohm: 1V = 1A ⋅ 1Ω

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

163.8 ft

Explanation:

In triangle ABD

AB = 155 ft

Cos63 = \frac{BD}{AB} = \frac{BD}{155}\\BD = 155 Cos63 \\BD = 70.4 ft

Sin63 = \frac{AD}{AB} = \frac{AD}{155} \\AD = 166 Sin63\\AD = 148 ft

Using Pythagorean theorem in triangle ADC

AC^{2} = AD^{2} + DC^{2} \\175^{2} = 148^{2} + DC^{2} \\DC = 93.4 ft

d = distance between the anchor points

distance between the anchor points is given as

d = BD + CD = 70.4 + 93.4\\d = 163.8 ft
