What do these terms really mean?

[mrivc211]

If someone were to ask you to define a VOLT AMP and WATT what would it be?

At first your kinda like.........a VOLT?

.......then your thinking......a VOLT is a VOLT right?

It's one of those things where you know what it is, but not really!

Someone care to explain their definitions of these three items?
Thanks

A Watt is a measure of power.
Amperage is a measure of current.
Voltage is a measure of the electric potential.

In the water/electric analogy, watts are like the amount of gallons being passed down the pipe. Amps are like the width of the pipe, and voltage is like pressure in the line.

I know what I said now!! I said, "Oooohhhh... that he obtained punked!!!!! Which is worse is than I do not have a track how this free translation will work!"

Oh, my.....

Oh man that screwed up the reply button know its in a different county. Let me fix that for you (for FREE). Great now that I put free I'm going to get a ton of pm's.

VOLT = measure of electrical potential, i.e. the work required to move a unit of electrical charge between two points. One Volt = one Joule of work required to move per Coulomb of charge. One Coulomb = basic unit of charge. V=J/C

AMP = time rate of movement of charge past a point. One Amp = one Coulomb per second. A=C/s

WATT = measure of power (work per unit time). One Watt = One Joule per second. W=J/s.

Volts * Amps = Watts
