What is the diference between voltagge, ampere, coloumb and watts?
If you are unfamiliar with electricity then the best way is to picture it as a garden hose hooked up to a faucet. Voltage is the pressure applied to an electrical circuit much as the water pressure on a garden hose. Ampere is the flow of electrons in the electrical circuit which is of course regulated by the amount of pressure. Open a water hose slightly and you get a small stream of water or amps, open the water nozzle and you get more water or amps. Amps are also regulated by the resistance of the wire and also the size of the wire. Colomb is the quantity of electricity conveyed in 1 second by a current of 1 ampere. In other wards, open the water nozzle to one amps worth of water and let it flow for one second and that is your colomb. Watts is the amount of energy being used by an appliance and is figured by taking the amount of amps the appliance is drawing times the voltage applied to the circuit. To simplify an example you could say that a light bulb with 100 volts applied to it w
