Ohms law.

The voltage across a resistance is equal to the current passing through the resi
stance (in Amps) multiplied by the value of the resistance (in Ohms).
Voltage = Current x Resistance
V=IR

or

I=V/R

or

or

V=IR

R=V/I

Power:
The power (in Watts) dissipated by a resistance is equal to the current (in Amps
) passing through the resistance multiplied by the voltage (in Volts) across it.
Power = Current x Voltage

or

P=IV

Using Ohms Law to substitute the voltage term we get:

P = I x (IR)

or

P = IR

Using Ohms Law to substitute the current term we get:

P = (V/R) x V

or

P = V/R

As a practical example of this Q - Why would a person moving home from the UK to the USA be well advised to buy
a new electric kettle?
A - The kettle in the UK is rated at 2000 Watts on a voltage of 230V.
Applying the formula P = V/R we can find the resistance of the kettle:
R = V/P = 230/2000 = 26.45 Ohms
If the kettle were to be plugged into a 120V USA supply, its power would be:
P = V/R = 120/26.45 = 544.4 Watts
So, the kettle would produce around a quarter of the heat and would take roughly
four times as long to boil.
If you halve the voltage, you get a quarter of the power.
