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.

How many amps are required for 100W light bulb operate on 110 volts?
amps equals watts divided by volts.
How many amps does a 50 watt bulb use?
You just have to divide the watts by the voltage to find the amps. For example 60 watts on a 120 v system would take ½ amp.
Could batteries light a light bulb?
Yes, even a potato can light a light bulb. Yes. If the batteries match the voltage of the bulb, they can light it. Flashlights have bulbs and batteries that power them. If you mean a household light bulb, then you'd need many batteries in series (80 of the 1.5 volt batteries).
How many hours did Edison light bulb stay lit?
66
How many wires are normally connected to a double filament light bulb?
5
A 500 watt pool light pulls how many amps?
To answer this question the voltage of the bulb is needed.
How many amps needed for a 600 watt floodlight?
Watts = Volts x Amps for an incandescant bulb. So Amps = 600/120.
How many amps does a 65 watt light bulb have at 120 volts?
The amps drawn by a 65 watt light bulb should be 65/120 or 0.54167. This fraction of an ampere may be restated as 541.67 milli-amps.
How many amps in a 50 watt 12v light?
Amps = Watts/Volts55/12= 4.583333
How many amps does a two-bulb 32 watt 48-inch fluorescent light draw?
draw 0.104 amps
How many amps does 65 watt light bulb draw?
A 65 Watt incandescent light bulb should draw 65W/120V = 541.67mA
How many amps are required for 100W light bulb operate on 110 volts?
amps equals watts divided by volts.
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.
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.
Can the resistance of a light bulb permanently change after it had been used for years?
240v is equal to how many amps
How many amps are needed to efficiently run a light?
Depends on your light usually it's a 60 wat balb
How many amps does a led light draw?
Depends on the size of the LED light and the voltage applied. An example is an LED 24 volt globe light that pulls 8 watts which draw 0.333333 amps. Take an LED 120 volt light bulb draws 12 watts and will pull 0.1 amps. The same bulb at 240 volts wil draw 0.05 amps. it really depends on the watts and voltage applied. An average would be about 0.1 amps.
