The rate at which electric work is done by the source of emf in
maintaining the current in electric circuit
W=VIt
Therefore Electric Power (P) =
W/t =VIt/t=VI watt or joule/s
Power is said to be one watt
if one ampere of current flows I it against a potential difference of 1 volt
Commercial unit of power is horse power, 1HP=746watt
P=VI=I2R=V2/R
It is the chemical energy of cell which supplies the power to
the circuit.
