How many amps are required for 100W light bulb operate on 110 volts?

amps equals watts divided by volts.


How many amps does a 65 watt light bulb use?

Amps x volts = watts So, assuming you are running on 110 volt line, the answer is 65 watts/110 volts=.591 amps.


How many amperes does a standard 60 watt light bulb use?

Watts = Volts X Amps. Amps=Watt / Volts. So, with a 240V mains, a 60W bulb draws 0.25amps. On a 12 system (car/auto) a 60W bulb draws 5 amps. On a 110V mains, a 60W bulb draws .55 Amps.


How many amps will a 60 watt bulb draw from 120 volts?

Watts = Volts x Amps x Power Factor. An incandescent light bulb is a resistive load so PF = 1. ANSWER: = 1/2 Amp


How many amps are needed to run a light bulb?

If you divide the watts of the bulb by the supply voltage, that is the current. For example a 60 w bulb on a 240 v supply gives a current of 60/240 which is ¼ amp.


What is the curren in an ac circuit with 120 volts and a 60 watt light bulb?

You want to know how many amps in that circuit. To do so, divide the Watts by the Volts. in your case it would be 60 watts / 120 volts = 0.5 Amps.

How many amps needed for a 600 watt floodlight?

Watts = Volts x Amps for an incandescant bulb. So Amps = 600/120.


How many watts are consumed by a light bulb if 1.2 amperes are measured when 12 volts are applied?

144 watts <<>> The formula to find watts is W = A x V. Watts =Amps x Volts.


How many volts are in anonion to power a light bulb?

Onions don't have volts.


What is the formula for finding out how many amps is required to achieve the full 100 watt output from a 9 volt bulb?

The formula is volts times amps equals watts, or watts divided by volts equals amps.


How many amps in a low voltage light bulb?

Look on the light bulb for the voltage and the power in watts. Then divide the watts by the voltage and that gives the amps. Some CFL bulbs also state the current as well as the voltage and power, which is because they can have a poor power factor.
