Equation In words In units


Q = It charge = current × time coulomb = ampere × second
(C = A s)
ohm = volt/ampere
R=V resistance =
p.d.
I current (Ω = V/A)

P = IV power = current × p.d. watt = ampere × volt


(W = A V)
E = IVt energy = current × p.d. × time joule = ampere × volt × second
(J = A V s)
