  2. Volt-ampere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volt-ampere

    In direct current (DC) circuits, this product is equal to the real power, measured in watts. [3] The volt-ampere is dimensionally equivalent to the watt: in SI units, 1 V⋅A = 1 W. VA rating is most used for generators and transformers, and other power handling equipment, where loads may be reactive (inductive or capacitive).

  7. Watt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watt

    In terms of electromagnetism, one watt is the rate at which electrical work is performed when a current of one ampere (A) flows across an electrical potential difference of one volt (V), meaning the watt is equivalent to the volt-ampere (the latter unit, however, is used for a different quantity from the real power of an electrical circuit).

  8. Aperture card - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aperture_card

    Such a card is used for archiving or for making multiple inexpensive copies of a document for ease of distribution. The card is typically punched with machine-readable metadata associated with the microfilm image, and printed across the top of the card for visual identification; it may also be punched by hand in the form of an edge-notched card ...

  9. Keypunch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keypunch

    The first combination of card punch and typewriter, permitting selected text to be typed and punched, was developed by the Powers company in 1925. [23] The IBM 824 Typewriter Card Punch was an IBM 024 where the 024 keyboard was replaced by an IBM electric typewriter. [24] Similarly, the IBM 826 used an IBM 026 Keypunch. [25]
