Energy in a Circuit

Claimed by Neevedita Goswami

Preface

Energy in a circuit originates from the battery, and once the circuit is closed, it flows through the wires.

Definitions

Power

Power is measured in watts, and in a circuit, it is the rate at which energy is converted from electrical energy to a different type of energy.

Resistance

Resistance is measured in ohm. It slows the flow of the charge and is the ratio of the voltage applied to the electrical current flowing through it. The longer the wire, the greater the resistance.

Voltage

Voltage is measured in volts.
