第十八章 电功率-[中考物理基础知识]
Chapter 18: Electric Power [Basic Knowledge of Physics for the High School Entrance Exam]

106.电功:电流所做的功叫电功。电功的符号是W。公式:W=UIt
Electric Work:
The work done by an electric current is called electric work, denoted by the symbol W.
Formula:W=UIt W=UIt

电流做功的过程,实际上就是电能转化为其他形式能的过程(例如:光能、热能、机械能)。
The process of electric current doing work is essentially the conversion of electrical energy into other forms of energy (e.g., light, heat, mechanical energy).
电功的单位:焦耳(焦,J)。电功的常用单位是度,即千瓦时(kW·h)。
Units of electric work:SI unit: joule (J)
107.电能表:1kw﹒h=3.6×10-6J
Electric Energy Meter:
(Note: The original Chinese text contains a typo—“3.6×10⁻⁶J” should be “3.6×10⁶J”. This correction is applied here.)
108.电功率定义式:P=W/t;电功率计算式:P=UI
Electric Power:Definition: P=W/t ;Calculation formula (for DC circuits): P=UI

109.额定功率:用电器在额定电压下的功率。实际功率:用电器在实际电压下的功率。
Rated Power vs. Actual Power:
Rated power: The power consumed by an electrical appliance when operating at its rated voltage.
Actual power: The power consumed when the appliance operates at its actual (applied) voltage.
110.测小灯泡的实际功率:
Measuring the Actual Power of a Small Light Bulb:
(1)原理:P=UI
Principle: P=UI
(2)电路图与伏安法测小灯泡电阻的电路图相同。
Circuit diagram: Same as that used in the volt-ampere method for measuring resistance.
(3)多次测量求出不同电压下的实际功率。
Take multiple measurements to determine the actual power at different voltages.

111.电功率与欧姆定律的推导公式:P=I²R=U²/R
Derived Formulas for Electric Power and Ohm's Law:P=I²R=U²/R
由欧姆定律(From Ohm's Law) U=IR ,代入功率公式(Substituting into the power formula ) P=UI,可得:P=UI=(IR)⋅I=I2R ;同理(Similarly, substituting ),将 I=U/R 代入功率公式:P=UI=U⋅U/R = RU 2
112.焦耳定律:电流通过导体产生的热量跟电流的二次方成正比,跟导体的电阻成正比,跟通电时间成正比。 公式:Q=I²Rt。
Joule's Law: The heat generated by an electric current passing through a conductor is directly proportional to the square of the current, directly proportional to the resistance of the conductor, and directly proportional to the time the current flows. Formula: Q=I²Rt
