Questions and Answers

What is the correct conversion of 1 kW to watts?

  • 10 W
  • 10000 W
  • 100 W
  • 1000 W (correct)
  • What should you do first to calculate the output power of a device when its efficiency is given as a percentage?

  • Convert the efficiency percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100% (correct)
  • Multiply the input power by the efficiency percentage directly
  • Use the efficiency percentage as it is
  • Subtract the efficiency percentage from 100%
  • Which relationship should you know for understanding electric charge in circuits?

  • Current = Charge / Voltage
  • Charge = Current x Time (correct)
  • Power = Charge x Voltage
  • Voltage = Current x Time

    Study Notes

    Electrical Wiring

    • Know the components inside a three-pin plug and the colour of each wire.

    Electrical Quantities

    • Understand the relationship between charge, current, and time.

    Power Conversion

    • 1 kilowatt (kW) is equal to 1000 watts (W).

    Efficiency Calculations

    • Be careful when using efficiency values to calculate output power.
    • If efficiency is given as a percentage, convert it to a ratio by dividing by 100%.
    • Multiply the input power by the ratio to find the output power.
