How much current flows through a standard 100 watt floodlight when operated at its designed voltage of 120V?

To get Watts you multiply Amps x Volts. So in your case you just do some reverse math and divide the Watts by the volts and you get your amperage.
so 100/120=0.83 Amps

What tool is designed to test dc current from a molex connector?
The tool designed specifically to test DC current from a Molex connector is called a Power Supply Tester.
Why the windings burn when transformer is operated in DC?
Transformers are not intended to be operated in DC. DC does not provide the continuously fluctuating current that a transformer requires in order to function. On DC, a transformer will act as a transient mode inductor, and settle out to a high current state, destroying itself.
What is designed to use a small current to control a large current?
A silicon controlled rectifier falls into this category.
What is the current HTML standard and how does it differ from the previous standard?
The current HTML version is the version 5. It has a special feature of HTML Authentication which was not in the before versions.
How do you get a short-circuit?
Damage from short circuits can be reduced or prevented by employing fuses, circuit breakers, or other overload protection, which disconnect the power in reaction to excessive current
Why current cannot be measured directly using an oscilloscope?
A standard oscilloscope is designed to measure voltage, you need a current probe for your oscilloscope to measure current.
Who designed current US flag?
I did.
Does the standard transmission have a shift cable?
Generally not. Standard transmissions are for the most part, operated by linkage rods connected to the shifter. These rods push and pull the shift arms on the side of the transmission. Cables are quite common on automatic transmissions, and may in some rare cases be used on standard transmissions, but these are the exceptions, and I know of no current or past applications.
What happens when a relay is operated beyond its rated voltage or current?
Generally speaking, a relay is an electrically operated switch. As such, there are two sets of ratings associated with a relay. The operating voltage will be specified, and the ratings of the contacts are also set down. As regards exceeding the operating voltage, this will cause excessive current to flow in the relay when it is energized. If the voltage is not significantly higher than the rating, and if the relay is not operated often or for long, it will function normally, but probably with a shorter life. At some point, excessive operating voltage will cause the coil in the relay to fail. Operating a relay to energize an electrical circuit with a higher voltage or current than the relay is designed for will shorten the life of the contacts in the relay. Higher voltage and current will quickly burn the contacts and destroy them. This is particularly true if that voltage or current is significantly higher than the ratings set by those who designed and constructed the relay. Things might work for a short time, but not for long.
What year did Nikola Tesla invented electric engineer?
Alternating current became standard power in the 20th Century. This accomplishment changed the world. He designed the first hydroelectric powerplant in Niagara Falls in 1895, which was the final victory of alternating current.
How many amps per phase would a machine rated at 460 amps over three phases take?
It depends on the internal circuit of the machine. If it is star operated its full load current will be same as rated current. If it is Delta operated its full load per phase current will be as given below : Phase current = Line Current / 1.732
What kind of electrical systems are the current standard for cars?
alternating current
What does grading mean in electrics?
Of, relating to, producing, or operated by electricity: electric current; an electrical appliance.
Are Remington shotguns gas operated?
All of their semi-auto shotguns are gas operated, yes/ All of their semi-auto shotguns are gas operated, yes/ All of their semi-auto shotguns are gas operated, yes/ Not true. The Remington 11, 11-48, & 48 are all blow back operated. The 58, 878, 1100, and 11-87 are gas operated. All of there current models are.
What the difference between Transistor and resistor?
The difference between a Transistor and a Resistor is that a transistor is designed to amplify the electrical current, whereas a Resistor is designed to reduce the electrical current.
What tool is designed to test dc current from a molex connector?
The tool designed specifically to test DC current from a Molex connector is called a Power Supply Tester.
What is the current standard electrical systems used in cars?
The current standard is 12 volt DC. As far as I know this is common throughout the world.
