Posting on behalf of @Hagane_no_Saiyajin . To quote them:

Would like this opened to fix the equation a little: https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Lightning_Feats#Energy

I just think the formatting could be better, currently the section reads like this:

The energy of electricity can directly be calculated if its current and electrical potential difference is known.

If the current is a ampere and the electrical potential difference is v volt, then the power of the lightning is given as a*v J/s. Usually 1 second of this is addressed to the AP, unless the electrical flow couldn't be sustained for that long.

It should be noted that for real electricity enduring a lightning strike usually doesn't require durability equal to the lightnings full energy.

However it might be better more like this:

The energy of electricity can directly be calculated if its current and electrical potential difference is known.

If the current is in amperes and the electrical potential difference is in volts, then the power of the lightning is given as:

P = I * V

Usually 1 second of this is addressed to the AP, unless the electrical flow couldn't be sustained for that long.

It should be noted that for real electricity enduring a lightning strike usually doesn't require durability equal to the lightnings full energy.

Current isn't referred to as "A" but as "I" as per Ohm's Law. And I think the grammar flows better this way

Factually speaking, they are correct. A is not used for amperes in any official source of electricity; it is always "I" for current, as Amps are a measure of current and not the other way around. Additionally, the formula is probably better suited as the following:

If the current is I amperes and the electrical potential difference is V volts, then the measurement of Watts or P-power is given by the following

P = I * V

P = Watts = Joules / second

Usually 1 second of this is addressed to the AP, unless the electrical flow couldn't be sustained for that long.

Nothing other than the symbols used in the math would change; the suggestion would be to correct it to accepted International Standards.

This looks fine.

 

[KLOL506]

This is alright.

Should the equations of P = V^2/R and P = I^2*R be included also?

 

[Migue79]

Proposal checks out.

Should the equations of P = V^2/R and P = I^2*R be included also?

Yeah, they should.

 

[Qawsedf234]

Yeah, they should.

How does this look then:

The energy of electricity (measured in Watts and resented by P) can be directly calculated as long as two of the following values are known:

• Current / Amperage (I)
• Voltage / Electrical potential (V)
• Resistance / Impedance of the material it's passing through (Ω or R)

If two of the values are known, then the measurement of Watts or P-power can be found by one of the following formulas in accordance with Watt's energy calculations:

• P = I * V
• P = I^2 * R
• P = V^2 / R
• P = Watts = Joules / second

Usually, 1 second of this is addressed to the AP, unless the electrical flow can't be sustained for that long.

How does this look then:

Yeah, I think this looks good enough.

Applied the change
