Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is Watt.
Explanation:
- The SI unit of electric power is the watt (W) or joule per second.
- Electric power is the rate at which electrical energy is transferred, used, or dissipated in an electrical circuit.
- It measures how quickly electrical energy is converted from one form to another or how much work is done per unit time.
- It is a scalar quantity, i.e., it has magnitude only but no particular direction.
- The formula for electric power is:
- P = V × I
- Where P is electric power, V is voltage across the circuit and I is the current flowing across the circuit.
Thus, the S.I unit of electric power is Watt.
