Original answer: Because it gives off more power. Updated answer: In general, because the 100-watt bulb produces more total light (lumens) because it also consumes more power than the 60-watt bulb. However, a 60-watt can produce more lumens than a 100-watt bulb, depending on the types of bulbs in question.
A 1,000 watt is 15,000 lumens. A 100 watt bulb is 1,500 lumens.
A 100 watt light bulb does not cost more that a 1200 watt hair dryer. The average price of a light bulb is about 90 cents whereas a hair dryer can range up to 20 dollars.
A watt is a measurement of electricity, usually pertaining to light. Light bulbs luminosity is graded by wattage, such as a 60 watt bulb, 100 watt bulb and so on. You would find a watt in a light bulb, to start.
yes, 4x more
Almost twice as much as 100 is almost twice 60.
You will have more light but at a lower cost. They produce much less heat so that wouldn't be a problem.
That bulb is 100 watts or 0.1 kilowatts so it uses 0.1 kilowatt-hour of energy each hour, which costs about £0.015
The rhyming word for a 100-watt bulb is "dull."
An incandescent nightlight bulb is either 4 watt or 7 watt. A 4 watt bulb uses 1/25th (0.04) the power of a 100 watt bulb. A 7 watt bulb uses 7/100th (0.07) the power of a 100 watt bulb. There are LED and other types of nightlights that use much less power than this. To find the energy total used multiply the power (in watts) by the total time the light is on (in hours) to get energy (in Wh). If you want kWh divide this by 1000 as a watt is 1/1000th of a kW.
A 40 watt bulb is dimmer than a 100 watt bulb.
In 100 hours it will use 6 kilowatt-hours (units) of electrical energywhich would cost around £1 or $1.

100
the highest light bulb is 100
Yes. It just won't be as bright.
