tricitv we must consider the size .
tba current and also its electro-motlve
force. Since the power is proportloh-
al to each of these it is proportional 10
their product. The unit of power =
eoled the watt. It we multiply the
volts hv the amperes we obtain the
mower of a current in watts. But the
number of volts equals the number OF
amperes multiplied by the number OF
ohms, hence the power of a current IN
w~att-units may also be obtained by
snuaring the number of amperes IN the
current and multiplying by the number
of ohms' resistance it is overcoming.
Power companies usually fix their
charges according to the mount OF
work lone by the current. When a cur
rent having a power of one watt IS used
for one hour, it does a quantity OF
work called a watt-hour. Another, and
nerhaps more convenient unit of work
is the kilowatt-hour. 1t is equal t.
1000 watt-hours. The larger unit is SO
well established among electricians
that when they talk o fobtaining cleo
tricitv eat FIVE cents they mean
five cents per kilowatt hour, just as a
butter dealer, in talking of butter at
30 cents. means 80 cents per pound.
