40 Joules, I think, as the formula for Watts is Joules/Second = Joules per second 40 Watts should equal 40 Joules per one second...
A Watt is a Joule per second. Joules measure energy and Watts measure power, which is the rate of energy used. Therefore, if you use a 60 Watt light bulb for 10 seconds, you consume 600 Joules.
It takes 60 watt-hours. Same as lighting a 1-watt bulb for 60 hours; or 60 bulbs of 1 watt each for 1 hour. You get the idea.Notice the units: watt-hours, not watts. Watt is a unit of power, watt-hour is a unit of energy. 1 watt-hour = 0.001 kWh (kilowatt-hour) = 3600 joules = 860 calories = 3.4 BTU.
When the bulb is lit it uses energy. When there is no bulb, no energy is used even if it is switched on.
You can prove it by using an energy monitor that measures the actual energy consumption of the light bulb. The wattage directly correlates to the amount of energy used by the bulb, regardless of its physical size. A higher wattage bulb will consume more energy than a lower wattage bulb, even if they are of the same physical size.
This depends on how long it is being used. The 60 Watt bulb consumes 2.6667 times the power of an 18 Watt bulb, but energy equals power times time. There is also an amount of 'hidden' energy: the energy to manufacture and transport the bulb. This depends on how long it is being used.

WH means 'Watts per hour'.An example: A light bulb which is 20Watts, is run for 2 hours, which equals to 40Wh.This means 40Watts are used in an hour.Does that kinda make sense?An actual definition is:Wh - Watt-hour, measurement of the total energy of the battery.Hope this helped! :]

To plug it in, you use your muscle energy. When current flows through the bulb,electrical energy converted to the heat and light energy in the bulb.

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.
A lamp converts electrical energy into light energy. The electrical energy powers the bulb, which generates light through a process called incandescence or fluorescence, depending on the type of bulb used.
When the bulb is lit it uses energy. When there is no bulb, no energy is used even if it is switched on.
That depends a lot on the type of lightbulb. Check the number of watts on the lightbulb - watts means joules / second. An old-fashioned incandescent lightbulb might use in the range of 40-100 watts (joules/second); 100 watts for the brighter ones. On the other hand, a fluorescent lightbulb uses around 40 watts for the brighter ones, and a LED lightbulb uses even less.

It goes from solar energy to electrical to light/&heat

Only about 10% of the electrical energy used to light an incandescent bulb is converted into light energy. The rest is mostly given off as heat.
