POWER FORMULAS

POWER FROM ENERGY
P = E ÷ t
Power equals energy transferred divided by time.
ELECTRICAL POWER
P = I × V
Power equals current multiplied by voltage.
UNITS
Power is measured in watts.
1 W = 1 J/s
GCSE TIP
Use seconds for time when calculating watts.

WORKED EXAMPLES

ENERGY / TIME
E = 120 J, t = 10 s
P = 120 ÷ 10
Answer: 12 W
CURRENT × VOLTAGE
I = 2 A, V = 6 V
P = 2 × 6
Answer: 12 W
COMMON ERROR
Do not use minutes unless you convert them to seconds first.
CHECK
More energy in the same time means higher power.

WHAT THIS TOOL DOES

This power calculator finds power in watts using common GCSE physics formulas.

Use P = E ÷ t for energy transfer and time questions.

Use P = I × V for electrical current and voltage questions.

Canonical folder: /power-calculator/

HOW TO USE IT

Choose P = E/t for energy and time, or P = I×V for electrical power.

Enter the two known values in the Page 1 calculator boxes.

Press SOLVE to show the formula, substitution and answer in watts.

Use EXAMPLE to restore the sample values, or CLEAR to reset the tool.

UNIT SAFETY

Use joules with seconds when using P = E ÷ t.

Use amps with volts when using P = I × V.

The answer is shown in watts when the input units are consistent.

If time is given in minutes, convert it to seconds before calculating power.

WHO USES IT

Students use this page for GCSE power, energy transfer, circuits and electricity revision.

Teachers and tutors can use it to show formula substitution and unit checking.

It helps with appliances, motors, lamps, circuits and work-rate questions.

The calculator starts on Page 1 so the input tool is always quick to reach.

COMMON SEARCHES

People may search for power calculator, watts calculator, electrical power calculator or P equals E over t calculator.

Other searches include P equals IV calculator, joules seconds watts calculator, and amps volts watts calculator.

This page supports those searches with a working calculator, formula help and readable internal pages.

GCSE HOMEWORK HELP

GCSE users may search for physics power calculator, GCSE power formula calculator or power with working calculator.

Homework searches may ask how to calculate watts from joules and seconds.

Electrical homework may ask how to calculate power from current and voltage.

The working panel shows the formula, substituted values and final rounded result.

FAQ: FORMULA

What is power? Power is the rate of energy transfer.

What unit is power? Power is measured in watts, written W.

What is 1 watt? 1 watt means 1 joule per second.

When use P = IV? Use it for electrical current and voltage questions.

FAQ: ANSWERS

Why is my answer wrong? Check that time is in seconds.

Can time be zero? No. Dividing energy by zero gives no valid power result.

Can I use decimals? Yes. Decimal energy, time, current and voltage values are supported.

Does rounding affect working? Rounding is applied only to the final displayed answer.

RELATED CALCULATIONS

Power connects to energy, work done, time, current, voltage, resistance and electrical circuits.
