None. The computer stores all of the data that is held in RAM to the master drive. After this is done, it will power off. At this time you can unplug it. No power is used until you start it up again.

Does hibernating make the computer battery low?

No. When you put your computer on hibernate, it transfers all its memory (temporary storage) onto your hard drive. Because the hard drive does not need to use power to keep its files, the only power your computer will use is the tiny watch battery that keeps your clock running, and you don't need to worry about that because it's always using electricity. Putting your computer into standby or sleep will drain your battery but it will do it very slowly.

What is the percent of your computer's power that the screen uses?

This depends on the screen type, the screen size, and also the computer's power. For example; a low power computer may use 200watts, where a high power gaming setup might use 800watts. A screen could use as little as 5watts, if it is a small LCD screen, while a big CRT monitor might use 200watts. Your screen should tell you it's power usage, as should your computer, if you examine the power supply.
