120 volts equal how many watts?

It depends upon how much amperage is utilized in a circuit. A circuit with 2 amps of current and 120 volts would consume 240 watts of power. The same circuit with 4 amps would produce 480 watts. You have to have 2 values of Ohm's law to figure out the third. See "Ohm's law" on the internet for more information on how circuit values are determined.
