Amps, or amperes, are a measure of electrical current; ohms are a measure of electrical resistance. Both are widely used in physics.

Why does a short circuit drain a battery?

You have to remember ohms law Voltage = amp * resistance. Using some basic algebra you can rewrite the equation as amps = voltage / resistance. Since a short circuit has relatively 0 ohms of resistance, this increases both the amps and resistance which uses more battery capacity,power, and creates more heat.


What is the amperage for a household applince with a wattage of 720 and it uses standard of 120 volts?

To calculate amperage, use the formula: Amperage = Wattage / Voltage. For a household appliance with a wattage of 720 and a standard voltage of 120 volts, the amperage would be 6 amps. (720 watts / 120 volts = 6 amps).

What is the symbol for induction?

Inductive reactance does NOT have it own sign or symbol. Rather, it uses Ohms as a quantifier. But Capacitive reactance ALSO uses Ohms as a quantifier. Fortunately, 1 Ohm of Inductive reactance is cancelled by 1 Ohm of Capacitive reactance at the same frequency of measurement.
