My wife threw both my iPod and iPad chargers in a desk drawer. How can I tell the difference between the two?

I take it you meant iPad and iPod.
Here's a dumb question: will the iPad blow up if I use my iPhone or iPod charger?
cable doesnt matter, they are the same. The only difference is in the wall charger (iPad wall charger is physically bigger).
OK, I'm still confused. The only difference I see between the iPad cable and the iPod cable is one is rounded and one is squared off, and the rounded one has an extra dimple in the male end (don't know which cable is for which device), as seen here:

So..... is everyone saying that if I am using either one of these cables to charge the iPad while connected to my iMac it does not matter which cable I use the iPad will only charge at 5W. To get the maximum charge rate of 10W I would need to attach the unit to the supplied AC wall adapter and one of these cables to get 10W?
But again, does the cable limit the wattage or is wattage determined by the device, charger or iMac?
Thanks for helping a newbie out.
