Volt Ampere
Volt ampere (V·A) is a unit of apparent power in an electrical circuit, representing the product of voltage and current without considering power factor.
History/Origin
The volt ampere was established as a unit of apparent power with the development of electrical engineering, particularly as a measure in alternating current (AC) systems. It is derived from the SI units volt (V) and ampere (A).
Current Use
Volt ampere is used to quantify apparent power in AC electrical systems, especially in the context of transformers, generators, and power supplies, to assess capacity and performance.
Calorie (It)/minute
Calorie per minute (cal/min) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in calories is transferred or converted per minute.
History/Origin
The calorie has been used historically in nutrition and energy measurement, with the 'calorie per minute' emerging as a unit to quantify energy transfer rates, especially in contexts like exercise and metabolic studies.
Current Use
Calorie per minute is used in fields such as sports science, physiology, and energy expenditure analysis to measure the rate of caloric energy transfer or consumption over time.
