How much CO2 does a 60w light bulb exert?

10,000,000,000,000.000


Which bulb is brighter a 60W or 30W in a series then in parallel then separate circuits?

In series, a 30W incandescent lamp dissipates twice as much power as a 60W unit designed for the same supply voltage. While it's difficult to estimate how much of that power will be in the form of visible light and how much as heat, we're guessing that their comparative visual brightnesses will track the total power dissipation of each lamp, so the 30W will appear brighter than the 60W. In parallel, or in separate, independent, unconnected circuits on separate power supplies, the 60W lamp is brighter than the 30W unit designed for the same supply voltage. Note: Plugging two bulbs into any two separate outlets in the same house normally connects them in parallel.


Explain the power rating of this bulb say 60W what if the voltage changes?

You can check it out yourself using these formulas. Watts = Amps x Volts. Voltage = Watts/Amps


What is 60w light bulb?

a normal incandescent 60 watt light bulb uses 60 watts of electricity to produce 20 watts worth of light, and 40 watts worth of heat. It is more of a heat bulb than a light bulb. it is great if you can capitalise on the free heat, but if it is not cold in your house, turn it off. is there a better bulb? no. why are they ideal? cheap (as low as 10 cents for the el cheapos), never change shape/design/size/compatability, make pleasant light I could go on for an hour, but the best bulb is the cheapest.


What happens to a light bulb when put in series with a inductor?

When you put a light bulb in series with a inductor, the inductive reactance of the inductor reduces the current available to the light bulb, making it less bright. For this effect to be noticed, however, you need a very large inductor. To cut the current in a 60W bulb at 120VAC/60Hz by one half, for instance, you need an inductor around 0.6 henrys.

What is the comparison lumen output in a 10w halogen bulb vs 60w incandescent?

There's a range of products in each category and incandescent lumen output degrades more quickly than halogens due to typically short lamp life. Try this for a start. "14-17.5 lumens per watt for standard "A19" 120 volt 60 to 100 watt incandescents, and typically 16 to 21 for most halogen lamps." Conceivably, you could get 210 lumen output in a 10w halogen and as much as 1050 lumens out of a 60w incandescent. MR16's list beam power, rather than lumens because they are so focussed and directional.


What is the equivalent brightness of a 9W LED bulb compared to traditional incandescent bulbs?

A 9W LED bulb is roughly equivalent in brightness to a 60W incandescent bulb.


What are the benefits of using a 60W LED candelabra bulb compared to traditional incandescent bulbs?

The benefits of using a 60W LED candelabra bulb over traditional incandescent bulbs include lower energy consumption, longer lifespan, and reduced heat output. LED bulbs are also more environmentally friendly and can save money on electricity bills in the long run.


What is equal to 60 watt in CFL?

If the question is what wattage compact fluorescent (CFL) lamp has a similar light output to an incandescent lamp of a given wattage, the ratio is usually about 4. A 60W incandescent can be replaced by an 13-15 W CFL lamp. A 60W CFL lamp can replace a 300W incandescent lamp.


How much time would a 60w light bulb to run out of light?

The average lifetime of an incandescent bulb is around 2000 hours.


Can you replace a 60 watt incandescent bulb with a larger led bulb?

LED bulbs com in different powers, so there's no way to tell. At a guess a 10W LED might compare to a 60W incandescent.


What is the brightness level of a 12W LED equivalent bulb?

The brightness level of a 12W LED equivalent bulb is typically around 800 lumens, which is similar to a 60W incandescent bulb.


What does the w of 60w on a light bulb mean?

The "w" in 60W on a light bulb stands for watts, which is a unit of power. In this case, 60W indicates the amount of power consumed by the light bulb while it is illuminated. A higher wattage typically corresponds to a brighter light output.


What is the difference in brightness between a 60W and 100W light bulb?

The 100W light bulb is brighter than the 60W light bulb. The difference in brightness is 40 watts.


What is the best candelabra base LED bulb with a 60W equivalent brightness?

The best candelabra base LED bulb with a 60W equivalent brightness is the Philips LED Dimmable B12 Candelabra Base Bulb.


How many amperes does a standard 60 watt light bulb use?

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.
