The power rating for a light bulb (like "40 W") tells how much electrical power the light bulb uses. All of the power used by the bulb is either converted into light or heat. In an incandescent bulb, most of the energy becomes heat. In a fluorescent bulb, more of it becomes light.
the actual filament itself in a light bulb has the most resistance,this is why it glows and produces light,the rest of the bulb is sufficiently engineered to carry the voltage and current applied to it without producing too much heat.
Yes that's true fluorescent bulbs are better because it usess 75% less energy and works longer than a incandescent light bulb. Yes...and no. It is true that power usage decreases with fluorescent balb usage. However, one must take into account that they pollute more (i.e. mercury and other heavy metals).
The average home fluorescent lamp consumes 40W of power. Running for one hour it will consume 0.04 KWh. Units of electricity are charged per Kilowatt hour.
ahm...depends on the cost per watt charged by your local provider... how much is it?
The quantity of power consumed by a light bulb is dependant on the wattage of the bulb.
48,000 gigawatts
solar cells generate electric currents directly from the sun light

That depends on the power used by each light bulb. Look at the specifications for a specific light bulb, then multiply the power by 10. Note that energy = power x time; that is to say, the energy spent by a light bulb depends on its power, but also on how long you keep it on. Specifically, watts = joules x seconds.

Find out what the wattage of the bulb in the fixture is and you will have your answer.
You should be able to read the power off the bulb or its packaging.
The amount of electrical energy it uses in a fixed time is the power, measured in watts, that should be marked on the light bulb when it's bought.
That varies a lot, depending on the type of light bulb. The old-fashioned incandescent light bulbs produce much less light, for the same power, than the fluorescent light bulbs.That varies a lot, depending on the type of light bulb.

110 volts is what comes out of an average wall socket in America. A 100-watt bulb would be powered by 110 volts. You need to be more specific in your question to get a good answer. Small can't be measured.
You need a wind power generator to make the electric energy to hook your light to. Maybe charging a battery with the wind generator and running the light bulb off the battery will provide better service.
