Watt is the current allowed to flow through a bulb?
The current flowing through a bulb is equal to the (voltage across the bulb) divided by the (bulb resistance), and can be expressed in Amperes. The rate at which the bulb dissipates energy is equal to (voltage across the bulb) times (current through the bulb), and can be expressed in watts.
How do you describe what amps is?
Amps ain't nothing really until you cut on a light switch in your house. It's a term of electricity measurement of which is being used in a circuit. Say you have an unlit 50 watt light bulb in your den plugged into the 110 volt outlet. The 110 volts is there ready to operate the lamp. Cut it on and the electron flow is called current. Replace the bulb with a 100 watt bulb and the current flow will double. Cut off all the lights and the power meter on your house will run slower and you use less current and will have a lower electric bill next month.
The electrical power lightbulbs is measured in what unit?
Watt
The problems of electricity two light bulbs of 100 watt and one 60 watt both operation in a 220V circuit. Which bulb has the higher resistance and which bulb carries the greater current?
A 100 watt 220 volt light bulb (or anything consuming 100 watts on 220 volts) draws 100/220, or .45 Amps. It will also have about 220²/100, or 484 ohms resistance. A 60 watt 220 volt light bulb (or anything consuming 60 watts on 220 volts) draws 60/220, or .27 Amps. It will also have about 220²/60, or 807 ohms resistance.
One 100-watt bulb draws 0.87 amperes of current how many amperes will 17 such bulb draw?
If this is a homework assignment, please consider trying to answer it yourself first, otherwise the value of the reinforcement of the lesson offered by the assignment will be lost on you.If a 100-watt bulb draws 0.87 amperes of current, 17 of them will draw about 14.8 amperes, (0.87 times 17), if they were wired in parallel.However, wiring them in series would not give you 0.051 amperes, (0.87 divided by 17), as one might expect, because the resistance-temperature coefficient of bulbs is quite dramatic, so more current would actually be drawn because the bulbs would be much cooler. How much more would require testing. You could do this by supplying 6.8 volts to one bulb and seeing what you get, or just hook 17 of them up in series to 115V.
Watt is the current allowed to flow through a bulb?
The current flowing through a bulb is equal to the (voltage across the bulb) divided by the (bulb resistance), and can be expressed in Amperes. The rate at which the bulb dissipates energy is equal to (voltage across the bulb) times (current through the bulb), and can be expressed in watts.
How much current does a 23 watt bulb consume?
To answer this question a voltage must be given.
What are watt bulbs?
current consumtion of a bulb
What is the current in anACcircuirt with 12-v0lt And a 60 watt light bulb?
A 60 watt bulb at 12 volts will pull 5 amps of current.
Do a 12 volt 50 watt bulb and a 230 volt 50 watt bulb draw the same current?
No, they do not draw the same current. The current drawn by an electrical device is determined by the power (Watts) and voltage (Volts) using the formula: Current (amps) = Power (Watts) / Voltage (Volts). So, the 12 volt 50 watt bulb will draw higher current compared to the 230 volt 50 watt bulb.
How much amount of current does a 14 watt cfl bulb consumes?
A 240 v 14 w cfl bulb uses about 0.14 amps.
How much current does a 75 watt light bulb draw from a 120v wall outlet?
It's 75/120 and the answer is in amps.
What are types of observations that can be used to indicate flow rate in a light bulb?
watt
How much heat does a 75 watt bulb produce?
A 75 watt bulb produces about 75 watts of heat.
Does a 25 watt light bulb draw more current than a 60 watt light bulb?
No, a higher wattage INCANDESCENT light bulb uses more current than a lower wattage INCANDESCENT light bulb. Some CF and LED bulbs are rated by the amount of light that an incandescent bulb would produce, but they are also rated by the wattage that they use.
Can you replace a 6 watt bulb with a 10 watt bulb?
As long as the lamp holder will take the larger wattage lamp and the current of the circuit is sized to take the larger current then yes, the lamps should be interchangeable.
How do you create alternating current for a 65 watt bulb?
You can get a 65-watt alternator to generate the current, or alternatively it can be bought from the electricity supply company in many locations.
