A watt is a measure of power, and a volt is a measure of electrical potential difference.
A watt is a volt times an amp. Said another way, power (P, given in watts) is equal to current (I, given in amps) times voltage (E, given in volts). The formula is given here:
P = I x E

Volts are a unit of measurement for the potential difference between two points. Amps are a unit for measuring the current flowing between those two points. Potential difference is just a condition for a current to flow.
watt - The International System (IS) measurement of power. It is equal to 1 joule per 1 second.
ohm - The IS measurement of electric resistance. It is volts/amps, or power/current.
volt - The IS measurement of electric potential or voltage. It is watts divided by amps, or power divided by current.
amp - Short for ampere; the IS measurement of electric current. It is about 1 coulomb per second.

What does kA stand for in electric terms?
kilo amp
What does amp apos mean?
"amp apos" as a phrase has no meaning. It occurs when codes intended to control text displays are not properly interpreted by a program. "Amp" is a code for "ampersand," the symbol "&" that means "and." "Apos" is a code for "apostrophe" the character written before the "s" when writing a possessive such as "John's head."
Do you always capitalize Amp?
Following SI convention, we never capitalise any unit of measurement when it is written in full. If, however, the unit is named in honour of someone, then its symbol is capitalised. So we write 'ampere' without a capital, but its symbol, 'A', is capitalised.Incidentally, it's 'ampere', not 'amp'.

What is the relationship between a volt an amp and a watt?
A volt is the unit of electric potential, an amp is the unit of electric current, and a watt is the unit of power. The relationship between them is described by the equation: Power (in watts) = Voltage (in volts) x Current (in amps).

9 amp go in to watts?
Amp(ere) is the unit for current flow. Volt is the unit for electrical tension. Watt is the unit for power Since Watt is Volt x Ampere , there is no way to answer your question. But with your newfound knowledge, you can now calculate yourselves :-)
How many watts in 845 hz?
There is no way to answer that. A watt is one volt times one amp. A hertz is one cycle per second. There is no correlation between them.There is no way to answer that. A watt is one volt times one amp. A hertz is one cycle per second. There is no correlation between them.
