HOW MUCH POWERDO I USE?
Energy & power basics
Energy is measured in Joules (J)Energy is a measurable amount. A quantity.
Lifting an apple from the ground to the table. ~ 1 Joule
40 apples per second from the ground to the table = 40 Watts.
Energy & power basics Power is measured in Watts (W). 1 Watt = 1 Joule / second.Power is the rate of using energy.
Running this Apple laptop takes 40 Watts.
Energy & power basics
Power, in Watts, is like an average.The average amount of energy, in Joules, you use each second.
Using units of power allows you to compare things that happen on markedly different time scales. yearly + monthly + daily + ...
