The correct answer is 1 W = 1 Volt * 1 Ampere.

Key Points

  • 1 Watt (W) is the unit of power in the International System of Units (SI).
  • It is defined as one joule per second (1 J/s).
  • In terms of electrical power, 1 Watt is equivalent to the power produced by a current of 1 Ampere flowing through an electrical potential difference of 1 Volt.
  • Therefore, 1 W = 1 V * 1 A.
