What unit is light energy measured in?

Light energy is measured in units called photons. Photons are the smallest unit of light and are quantized particles that exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties.


The power pf light bulbs in Measured in?

The power of light bulbs is measured in watts (W), which indicates the amount of energy consumed and the brightness of the light produced. The higher the wattage, the brighter the light emitted by the bulb.


Is a light year measured in energy produced?

No. A light year is a measure of distance. It is the distance light travels in a year.


What is the unit of light which is scalar qantity?

The intensity of light is measured in lumens. The amount of energy in light can be measured in any unit of energy (BTU, calories, Joules, etc.) The energy per unit time can be measured in any unit of power (Watts, horsepower etc.) All of these are independent of specific classes of coordinate systems and hence "scalar".


Energy of visible light can be measured in organized packets called?

The energy of visible light can be measured in organized packets called photons. These photons have discrete values of energy, meaning there is exact amounts of energy these have, and don't vary in decimal places.
