    Undergrad Why does power stay 1200W at 120V 10A and at 10V 120A?

    gunslingor, thanks for the help. And you TVP45. I really appreciate your help. After reading gunslingor's comment on this, the way I understand it is like this. In the first situation where there are more voltage, low current, and high resistance, the work needed to move 1 coulomb of...

    Undergrad Why does power stay 1200W at 120V 10A and at 10V 120A?

    I know that P = VI where P is power in watts (joule/second), V is voltage in volts (joule/coulomb), I is electric current in amps (coulomb/second). My idea of work is like this. I use force (in Newton) to pick up a stone and take it from point A to point B with a distance d in meters. I...
