Volt × Ampere is the measure of:
Correct answer: D. Power
- A. Current
- B. Volt
- C. Resistance
- D. Power
Explanation
Current is measured in Amperes (A), representing the flow of electric charge.Volt is a measure of electric potential difference.Resistance is measured in Ohms and is the opposition to the flow of current.Power is measured in Watts (W) and is calculated as the product of voltage (Volts) and current (Amperes).Thus, the correct answer is that Volt × Ampere measures Power.

About Current Electricity
Steady current relates charge flow to potential difference, resistance and resistivity, including how temperature changes a conductor's resistance. Sources with internal resistance have terminal voltage below their emf when delivering current, and maximum power output occurs under a specific load condition rather than at zero resistance.
