Knowing electricity through solving the equation :)
An electric lamp uses energy at a rat of 60W on a 12V supply. How much CHARGE passes through the lamp in 1 minutes ?
You can using this formula to solve this question : P=VI
Power is defined as the RATE OF ELECTRICAL ENERGY DISSIPATED .
Hence , Power = Energy Dissipated / Time = VIt / t
