The watts in a light bulb named after James Watt?

The watt was named after James Watt. The term watt in electric appliances refers the rate at which energy is generated or consumed and therefore is measured in units (e.g. watts) that represent energy per unit time. An example; when a light bulb with a power rating of 100W is turned on for one hour, the energy used is 100 watt hours (The watt second is a unit of energy, equal to the joule).


What are the units to measure power?

(Any unit of energy) divided by (any unit of time) is a unit of power.The most familiar one is the metric (SI) unit, 1 joule per second, known as 1 'Watt', written Wafter James Watt the Scottish inventor who did important work and investigations into steam "power".

How much energy does a nightlight use compared to a 100 watt bulb?

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.
