Voltage Formula:
From: | To: |
Definition: This calculator determines the voltage in an electrical circuit based on the power and current values.
Purpose: It helps electricians, engineers, and students quickly calculate voltage when power and current are known.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: The power is divided by the current to determine the voltage in the circuit.
Details: Accurate voltage calculation is essential for circuit design, troubleshooting, and ensuring electrical components operate within their specified ranges.
Tips: Enter the power in watts and current in amps. Both values must be greater than 0.
Q1: What units does this calculator use?
A: The calculator uses standard electrical units - watts for power, amps for current, and volts for voltage.
Q2: Can I use this for DC and AC circuits?
A: This formula works for DC circuits. For AC circuits, it calculates the magnitude of voltage but doesn't account for phase differences.
Q3: What if I get zero or negative values?
A: The calculator requires positive values for both power and current as negative values don't make physical sense in this context.
Q4: How precise are the results?
A: Results are displayed with 3 decimal places, but actual precision depends on your input values.
Q5: What happens if current is zero?
A: The calculator won't accept zero current as it would result in division by zero (undefined voltage).
