On this calculation I am assuming that the light bulb is using a 120 volt source. Watts = Amps x Volts. Amps = Watts/Volts, 40/120 = .33 amps. R = Volts/Amps, 120/.33 = 363.6 ohms resistance in the 40 watt light bulb.
A 60 watt light bulb is a light bulb with 60 watts capacity. When talking about watts, you're talking about the power that is transferred from the appliance to the accessories. Therefore, the light bulb labeled "60 watts" takes 60 watts to light up. A 60 watt light bulb will not be as bright as a 120 watt light bulb.
"A standard light bulb I would consider to be a 60 watt light bulb, and kilowatts are the amount of usage in a light bulb. From my research I have found that a standard 60 watt light bulb uses approximately 1.44 Kilowatts per hour."
no
bright light
A 65 Watt incandescent light bulb should draw 65W/120V = 541.67mA
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.
draw 0.104 amps
To answer this question the voltage of the bulb is needed.
figure out how many amps are in a watt and x by 40
A 120 volt table lamp with a 75 watt bulb will pull 0.625 amps. With a 100 watt bulb it will pull 0.833 amps. And with a modern fluorescent 13 watt bulb it will pull 0.108 amps.
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.
On this calculation I am assuming that the light bulb is using a 120 volt source. Watts = Amps x Volts. Amps = Watts/Volts, 40/120 = .33 amps. R = Volts/Amps, 120/.33 = 363.6 ohms resistance in the 40 watt light bulb.
A 60 watt bulb at 12 volts will pull 5 amps of current.
Amps x volts = watts So, assuming you are running on 110 volt line, the answer is 65 watts/110 volts=.591 amps.
It is drawing .06 amps.
Watts = Volts x Amps x Power Factor. An incandescent light bulb is a resistive load so PF = 1. ANSWER: = 1/2 Amp
