Power is measured in "watts" (named after James Watt). The units are energy divided by time. One watt is 1 joule transfered in 1 second. 1 British Thermal Unit (BTU) = 1 055.05585 joules. Most electric companies bill in "kilowatt hours". If Power interests you, you should check out [[Ohms_law]]. | Power is measured in "watts" (named after James Watt).
