Quelle est la puissance d'entrée d'un émetteur qui consomme un courant de 500 milliampères sous 12 volts CC?

  1. A600 watts
  2. B6 watts
  3. C24 watts
  4. D60 watts

Correct answer: B — 6 watts. Question tirée de la banque officielle d'ISDE.

Why

To find the power, multiply the voltage by the current, but first convert milliamperes to amperes by dividing by one thousand, turning 500 milliamperes into 0.5 amperes. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
