Ohm's Law For Alternating Current - The Formulae

Basics

Here it is, short and sweet. Keep reading for the pie chart and more information:

power (AP) = watts, voltage(total) (E) = volts, current(total) (I) = amperes

and impedance (Z) = ohms

AP = WATTS	E = VOLTAGE	I = AMPERES	Z = OHMS(of impedance)
volts²/ohms	√watts * ohms	volts/ohms	volts/amperes
amperes²* ohms	watts/amperes	watts/volts	volts²/watts
volts * amperes	amperes* ohms	√watts/ohms	watts/amperes²
