Wattage is:
A) A measure of the total electrical work being performed per unit of time.
B) Expressed as P = R × A.
C) All of these choices.
D) None of these choices

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Wattage, measured in watts (W), is a unit of power and is defined as the rate at which electrical energy is transferred or the rate at which work is done. It is calculated as the product of voltage and current, hence P = V x I. Therefore, option A is the correct choice as it defines wattage as a measure of total electrical work being performed per unit of time. Option B is incorrect as it is the formula for electrical power in terms of resistance and current, not wattage. Option C is unnecessary as both options A and B cover the question. Option D is incorrect as there is at least one correct answer among the choices.
