🔍 Key Concepts

• True power vs. apparent power in AC circuits • Relationship between voltage, current, and power • Meaning of power factor and how it relates to phase angle

💭 Think About

• When you simply multiply volts × amps in an AC circuit, what kind of power does that give you? • What extra factor is needed to adjust that volts × amps value so it represents only the useful (real) power? • How is the cosine of the phase angle between voltage and current typically used in AC power calculations?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the difference between real (true) power and apparent power • Recall the standard formula used for power in a single-phase AC circuit that includes voltage, current, and an additional factor • Verify which choice names the multiplier (not the angle or the total VA) used to convert apparent power to real power
