Running a power of 60 watts for one hour uses 60 watt-hours of energy. If you run it for two hours, that would be 120 watt-hours.

Running a 60 watt appliance for 16 hours and 20 minutes is 1000 watt-hours, or 1 kWh, also called one Unit.

How many watt-seconds does a 60 watt bulb use in 10 hours?

You multiply the watts by the seconds. 10 hours is 36,000 seconds, so the watt seconds is 60 x 36,000 Answer 2,160,000 watt-seconds You can also say the bulb uses 60 x 10 or 600 watt-hours.

How much eletrical energy energy in kilowat hours would 60 w light bulb use un 60 sdays if left on steadily?

60 days is 24x60 hours, so the energy used is 60x24x60 watt-hours, 86400 watt-hours or 86.4 kilowatt-hours or units. If it is a 60-watt incandescent bulb it could be replaced by a 12 watt low-energy bulb, and in the same time that would use only 17.3 units, saving 69 units costing about £10.


How much electricity does a 60 watt bulb use per hour?

"Kilowatt" is a rate of using energy. It's not an amount of anything.A 60-watt bulb uses energy at the rate of 60 watts ... the same as 0.06 kilowatts.In one hour, it uses 60 watt-hours of energy ... the same as 0.06 kilowatt-hours.


How many hours of operation with a 60 watt light bulb will one kilowatt hour give you?

The idea is to divide the energy by the power used. First, convert the units to make them consistent. For example, you might convert kilowatt-hours to watt-hours.


How many joules are needed to run a 60 watt light bulb for 1 minute?

1 Watt means 1 Joule per second, so 60 watts means 60 Joules per second. A light bulb that burns energy at that rate for 3 seconds uses 180 Joules.


How much energy does a 1000 watt light bulb use per hour?

A 60 watt light bulb uses 60 watts of power in a period of one hour or 60 watts in one minute or 60 watts in one second or 60 watts during any period of time.How much total energy a 60 watt light bulb "consumes", which is the amount of electricity that has to be paid-for, is measured in watt•hours (that's watts times hours). So a 60 watt bulb consumes 60 watt•hours in one hour, or 60 Wh x 24 hr/day = 1440 Wh per day.That is the same as 1.44 kilowatt•hours (kWh), so, if you look up what your electricity supplier charges for 1 kWh you can figure out how much it would cost you in money. If 1 kWh costs you 25 cents, then leaving a 60 watt light bulb switched on for 24 hours straight would cost you 1.44 kWh x 25¢/kWh = 36 cents.


How can a 60 watt bulb use the same power as a 60 watt bulb can in a second?

A 60 watt bulb uses 60 watts of power continuously per second. It is consistent with the definition of power, which is the rate at which energy is consumed or produced. Therefore, a 60 watt bulb would use the same amount of power as another 60 watt bulb within the same timeframe of a second.


How much would leaving on a 60 watt bulb all year cost?

There are about 8760 hours in a year, so running a 60 watt bulb for a year would consume (60 times 8760) or 526000 watt hours. Electric power rates vary, but at $0.15 per kilowatt-hour, that would be almost $80.
