Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In an AC circuit, if the voltage is 120 V and the current is 10 A, what is the apparent power? (2022)
  • Step 1: Identify the voltage in the circuit. In this case, the voltage (V) is 120 volts.
  • Step 2: Identify the current in the circuit. Here, the current (I) is 10 amperes.
  • Step 3: Use the formula for apparent power, which is S = V * I.
  • Step 4: Substitute the values into the formula: S = 120 V * 10 A.
  • Step 5: Calculate the result: 120 V * 10 A = 1200 VA.
  • Step 6: Conclude that the apparent power is 1200 volt-amperes (VA).
