Mission EC6 P, V, I, R, and Cost Calculations
Mission EC6 pertains to numerous calculation types that relate the quantities power, voltage, current, resistance, and cost. The mission consists of 33 questions organized into 10 Question Groups. You must answer one question from each Question Group to complete the mission. The learning outcomes for this mission are ...
Learning Outcomes
- The student should be able to solve computational problems which relate the current to the power and the voltage and problems which relate the current and voltage to the work (or energy) and time.
- The student should be able to solve computational problems which relate the cost of electricity and the time an electrical device is used to circuit variables such as power, current, voltage and resistance.
