With a room that has 8 foot walls the usual formula is 10 watts per sq. ft. Divide 1500 by 10 will give you 150 sq feet of room that will be comfortably heated with a 1500 watt heater.

What it costs me to run a heater does not depend on how much you are charged, but a 1500 watt heater would use 1500 watt-hours or 1.5 kWh for every hour it is run. Run for 24 hours it would use 36 kWh, also known as 36 units.
A 1500 Watt heater will pull about 12.5 Amps. Tour circuits in apartment will be 15 A and 20 A. Provided you don't have too much of a load on the same circuit, it should work.
1500 watts is equivalent to 5118 BTU per hour. 1500 watt-hours is equivalent to 5118 BTU.

By radiation.
A 1000 watt generator cannot run a 1500 watt ceramic heater without having problems.
Take the plug in your hand, and insert the plug into the wall outlet.
About one watt of heat. A 1500 watt heater will warm a 400 square foot room in the winter months. one watt is a very small volume of heat.AnswerHeat is measured in joules. A watt is equivalent to a joule per second. So your answer is that a watt produces one joule of heat every second.
To put it into perspective a 1000 watt base board heater will heat a 10' x 10' = 100 sq ft room.
It depends on the how many degrees you wish to change the water and the wattage of the heater. Obviously a 1500 watt heater will do it faster than a 1000 watt heater. You might want to begin by looking at the heat transfer formula: heat in joules equals mass times change in temperature times specific heat of the material (water in this case).
Yes you can.

Yes, a 1500 watt heater operating on 120 volts has an amperage of A = W/V. Amps = Watts/Volts = 1500/120 = 12.5 amps. It is not a recommended practice to do so.
