need to know what it is used in car house ?
E = I X R E/R=I E/I= R
E = volts I = amps R = Resistance OHM S LAW
AC inductive and capacitive loads are different law used
lights are resistive loads,unless fluorescent lights are different load.
but 60 watts =power p/e =i 60/120=.5 120 volts 60 watts on 12volt system
5 amps
AnswerThe voltage required for a lamp to operate at its rated power is called its 'rated voltage'. This value is shown, together with the rated power, printed on the lamp's glass envelope -e.g. 60 W/120 V or 60 W/230 V, depending on where you live.
Amps = I
Volts = V
Watts = P
I = P/V
I = 60/240
I = 1/4 = 0.25 amps = 250 mA
or for the US:
I = 60/115
I = 0.522 amps = 522mA
A D or a M battery can power a 60 watt light bulb. A D or a M battery can power a 60 watt light bulb.
To answer this question as it stands the voltage of the batteries is needed and the rated voltage of the bulb.
A 60 Watt bulb, by definition, uses 60 Watts.
If your question was how much current is required to operate a 60W incandescent in a situation where 120 VAC is the norm, it is 1/2 amp.
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
