$Amp / Volt$

Vedclass · Answer

(B) Power $(P)$ is defined as the rate of doing work or the rate of energy consumption. The $SI$ unit of power is Watt $(W)$,which is equivalent to $Joule/sec$ $(J/s)$.From Ohm's law,$V = IR$. The formula for power is $P = VI = I^2R = V^2/R$.$1$. $P = I^2R$: The unit is $(Amp)^2 	imes \Omega$.$2$. $P = VI$: The unit is $Amp 	imes Volt$.$3$. $P = W/t$: The unit is $Joule/sec$.Comparing these with the options,$Amp / Volt$ is not a unit of power. In fact,$Amp / Volt$ is the unit of conductance $(1/Resistance)$,which is Siemens $(S)$.
