I would use no more 14 100watt bulbs on a 15 amp circuit or 19 bulbs on a 20 amp circuit. You can calculate this by taking 80% of circuit amperage I.E 12 amps or 16 amps and then multiply by circuit voltage(120) to get 1440 watts and 1920 watts. Then take these values divided by bulb wattage(100 watts) to get 14.4 bulbs and 19.2 bulbs. Then round down for partial bulbs to get 14 bulbs and 19 bulbs.
To power ten 12 volt 10 watt lights, you would need a transformer with a total output of at least 120 volts and 100 watts.

The number of lumens required from a solar panel is not directly correlated to its wattage. A 100-watt solar panel typically produces around 300 to 600 lumens per watt, depending on the type of lighting used. Therefore, for a standard 100-watt solar panel, it can produce about 30,000 to 60,000 lumens when fully utilized, assuming it is connected to LED lights or similar efficient lighting systems.
Fuses or breakers are used to protect the conductor to the load. A #14 wire conductor is rated for 15 amps. Most home circuitry is done with #14 wire. The minimum size breaker in an electrical panel is 15 amp so it looks like a 15 amp fuse or breaker can be used for a 100 watt light bulb.
ummm...4(?) is this a trick question?
about 4800 watt but should not use it 100% so to be safe 4000 watt (80%)
I really need more detailed information to answer your question. How many lights were added and what wattage bulbs are being used? For a 15-amp breaker, the maximum wattage it would handle would be around 1650 watts. This would be about 16 100-watt bulbs. Does your breaker trip immediately when you turn the light switch on? If you have an ohmmeter you can check the tripped breaker. Put one lead on the black "hot" wire coming from the breaker. Remember, the breaker must be off. Then put the other lead on the ground bar. If the ohm reading is very low, close to 2 ohms, then you have a direct short to ground somewhere in your wiring.

The electrical code states that circuit conductors that are fed by this breaker on a continuous load can only be loaded to 80%. Therefore you can have a load of 1,920 watts on this circuit. Assuming you install 8 watt bulbs you can have 240 on this circuit.
A 1,000 watt is 15,000 lumens. A 100 watt bulb is 1,500 lumens.
See discuss Question below
There are 100 joules in 1 watt-second, so in 1 second, there would be 100 joules per watt. Therefore, in 100 watts, there would be 10,000 joules.
we can use 12 no's
With current (as of 2013) technology, from best to worst efficiency, the light bulbs are basically:LED light bulbs (most efficient)Fluorescent lightsThe old-fashioned incandescent lights (worst)
