How many amps does a hair dryer use with 25 volts 60 hz and 1500 watts?

Amps = Watts / (Volts x Power Factor). Now a hair dryer has a motor and a resistive heater so if we assume a PF = .8 the answer is:
1500 / 20 = 75 amps.
Since it is unlikely that you have a 75 amp hair dryer you must mean 125 volts. The answer for that would be 1500 / 100 = 15 amps which is still high, but believable. If we assume a Power Factor of 1 and ignore the motor contribution to Power Factor we have 1500 / 125 = 12 amps.

What does 1500 watts equal in amps at 120 volts?
23.6 amps
How many ac amps is a 1500 watts?
Watts are amps x volts, so w/o the volts the question can't be answered. At 100 volts it'd be 15 amps.
How many volts it takes to cause a current of 1.95 amps to exist in a 200 watt lamp?
The formula to calculate the relationship between amps, volts and watts is Volts X Amps = Watts or Volts = Watts / Amps or Amps = Watts / Volts therefore; 200 Watts divided by 1.95 Amps is 102.5641 Volts.
How many amps with 70 watts 13.8 Volts dc?
Watts = Volts * Amps Therefore: 70 Watts / 13.8 Volts = 5.07 Amps
At 12 volts how many watts is 30 amps?
Watts is volts times amps, so 12 x 30 = 360 watts
What does 1500 watts equal in amps at 120 volts?
23.6 amps

4 volts is a many watts?
4 volts and how many amps? Watts = amps x volts. It depends on the amount of current (in Amps) flowing at 4 Volts... See Ohms Law: Watts = Volts x Amps If you have 2 Amps flowing at 4 Volts you are dissipating/consuming 8 Watts. If you have 10 Amps flowing at 4 Volts you are dissipating/consuming 40 Watts.
How many amps with 70 watts 13.8 Volts dc?
Watts = Volts * Amps Therefore: 70 Watts / 13.8 Volts = 5.07 Amps
At 12 volts how many watts is 30 amps?
Watts is volts times amps, so 12 x 30 = 360 watts
The differene between amps and watts?
Amps are units of current, watts are units of power. Watts are the product of Amps times Volts. Watts = Amps x Volts.
Can a 780 watt uninterruptible power supply handle a 12.5 amp pump motor at 120 volts?
Volts * Amps = Watts 120 Volts * 12.5 Amps = 1500 Watts Doesn't sound like a good idea.
How many watt in amp?
It's watts divided by volts equals amps. Example: 1200 watts at 120 volts is 10 amps. To get the watts if you know the amps, multiply the amps times the volts. 10 amps at 120 volts is 1200 watts.
How do you convert watts into amperes?
To convert watts into amperes you divide the circuit voltage into the watts. Amps = Watts/Volts. <<>> Converting Watts to Amps The conversion of Watts to Amps is governed by the equation Amps = Watts/Volts For example 12 watts/12 volts = 1 amp Converting Amps to Watts The conversion of Amps to Watts is governed by the equation Watts = Amps x Volts For example 1 amp * 110 volts = 110 watts Converting Watts to Volts The conversion of Watts to Volts is governed by the equation Volts = Watts/Amps For example 100 watts/10 amps = 10 volts Converting Volts to Watts The conversion of Volts to Watts is governed by the equation Watts = Amps x Volts For example 1.5 amps * 12 volts = 18 watts Converting Volts to Amps at fixed wattage The conversion of Volts to Amps is governed by the equations Amps = Watts/Volts For example 120 watts/110 volts = 1.09 amps Converting Amps to Volts at fixed wattage The conversion of Amps to Volts is governed by the equation Volts = Watts/Amps For Example, 48 watts / 12 Amps = 4 Volts Explanation Amps are how many electrons flow past a certain point per second. Volts is a measure of how much force that each electron is under. Think of water in a hose. A gallon a minute (think amps) just dribbles out if it is under low pressure (think low voltage). But if you restrict the end of the hose, letting the pressure build up, the water can have more power (like watts), even though it is still only one gallon a minute. In fact the power can grow enormous as the pressure builds, to the point that a water knife can cut a sheet of glass. In the same manner as the voltage is increased a small amount of current can turn into a lot of watts.
How many watts in 40 amps?
I t depends. Watts = Amps times volts. 40 amps x 120 volts =4800 watts or 40 Amps x 12 volts = 480 watts.
How do you compute the 2000 watts in 220 volt to how many amps?
watts = volts * amps--> Amps = watts/ volts therefore; 2000/220= 9.09 amps
