No, the watt is a unit of power, which measures the rate of energy transfer or conversion. Heat energy is typically measured in joules or calories.

What is the name of an energy measure?

It depends on the type of energy:Foot-pound (torque)Newton-meter (torque)Joule (energy in general)Watt-second (electricity)Kilowatt-hour (electricity)BTU (heat)Calorie (heat)


A measure of heat energy?

A measure of heat energy can be done easily using a thermometer. This will measure the amount of thermal energy transferred.


What measurement is energy measured in?

It depends, If you measure your own energy it would be in joules, if it is for your house you measure it with kilo-watt hour

What is the most efficient watt to heat calculator available for determining the energy required to heat a specific space?

The most efficient watt to heat calculator for determining the energy needed to heat a space is the BTU (British Thermal Unit) calculator. It measures the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a specific space.


Joules could be used to measure what?

work and energy +++ The Joule (J) is the unit of energy, alone, not of work. The Watt (W) is the unit of power, i.e. work done in converting or transferring energy, and 1W = 1J/s.


How many watts are in a liter?

None, these are two different units of measurement. A liter is a unit of volume, a watt is a unit of energy. A watt is a unit of power. One watt is one joule per second, that is watts measure energy used over a period of time.


How much heat does a 1000 watt theater light produce?

If it is 1000 watts then it produces a 1000 watts. A watt is 1 joule/sec.


How hot does a 60 watt energy bulb get?

A 60 watt lamp will poduce 60 watts during the time it is operating. If it runs for an hour, it produces 60 watt-hours of heat energy. If it runs for 16 2/3 hours, it produces 1000 watts during that period, or it can be said to use a kilowatt of energy in that 16 2/3 hours, or that it produced a kilowatt-hour of heat in that 16 2/3 hours. Heat can be expressed in watts, but we can't really convert watts into "heat in Celsius" as was asked. The heat energy generated by the lamp will heat air or the area directly around it, but by how much? This becomes a difficult problem. And we don't measure the heat produced by a lamp in degrees Celsius, but in watts or a similar measure of energy. While it is true that temperature is a measure of thermal energy, it can't be fairly applied here. A lamp produces watts of heat energy, but not "degrees" of heat energy. The investigator would have to specify a goodly number of things to determine the change of temperature (in degrees Celsius) resulting from the operation of a 60 watt lamp. It becomes a problem in thermodynamics.


Does a 100 watt bulb produce more heat than a 25 watt light bulb?

Yes, a 100 watt bulb produces more heat than a 25 watt bulb because the higher the wattage, the more energy is being converted into heat. In this case, the 100 watt bulb will generate more heat compared to the 25 watt bulb.


What is heat output of one 60 watt light bulb?

A 60 watt light bulb produces 60 watts of heat energy as a byproduct of generating light.
