Power Terms

          Joules (J) = Energy
          Volts (V) = Voltage (pressure of electrons in the wire)
          Amps (A) = Current (amount of electrons moving past a certain point in the wire)
          Watts (W) = Measure of power (how many amps and volts a device needs to work)
          Ohms (Ω) = resistance (how much the wire resists the flow of electrons)
