Appliance Watts/Amps Calculator Electricity is measured in units of energy called watts, named after James Watt, the inventor of the steam engine. Watts is generally defined as the amount of power (or energy) an appliance uses (consumes) when operated at its maximum capacity for 1 hour.Amps on the other hand is defined as how much energy an appliance draws, or the rate of energy that flows through wire when an appliance is used for 1 hour.ou can determine power characteristics of an appliance if watts rating is not provided, by the following equation: V (Volts) X A (Amps) = Watts (Ohm's Law) A=W/V V=W/A To determine Amps consumed by a 25watt 12V light bulb, for example, use the equation A=W/V or (25/12=2.1Amps).
Common causes of mouth ulcers. The most common causes of mouth ulcers are related to disturbances of the mouth and include: 1  Bacterial infections. 2  Canker sores. 3  Dietary deficiencies, such as lack of vitamin B-12, zinc, folate (folic acid), or iron. 4  Emotional stress. 5  Food allergies. 6  Nutritional deficiency. 7  Spicy foods.
The most common causes of peptic ulcers are infection with the bacterium Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and long-term use of aspirin and certain other painkillers, such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others) and naproxen sodium (Aleve, Anaprox, others). Stress and spicy foods do not cause peptic ulcers. However, they can make your symptoms worse. Symptoms. Burning stomach pain; Feeling of fullness, bloating or belching; Fatty food intolerance; Heartburn; Nausea; The most common peptic ulcer symptom is burning stomach pain. Stomach acid makes the pain worse. Having an empty stomach can also worsen the pain. The pain can often be relieved by eating certain foods that buffer stomach acid or by taking an acid-reducing medication, but then it may come back.
