The total energy used in one hour by 10 100W light bulbs is 1 kWh (kilowatt-hour). To calculate this, you multiply the power of each bulb by the number of bulbs and the time they are on. In this case, 100W * 10 bulbs * 1 hour = 1000 watt-hours = 1 kWh.
Your question is rather like asking, 'How many miles per hour do you do in one hour?' A watt is simply the rate at which you use energy or do work, and it is the same regardless of over what period it is measured.
To remove the same amount of heat as a light bulb in an hour (about 60 watts), approximately 200 ml of sweat would need to evaporate per hour. This calculation is based on the heat of vaporization of sweat and the rate of heat production by a light bulb.
Power = Energy/time 100W=Energy/360 Seconds Energy = 100/360 Energy ≈ 0.27 Joules
The unit to measure the amount of electrical energy is the kilowatt-hour (kWh). It is commonly used by utility companies to bill customers for electricity consumption.
Simple 10,000 hours cause it completes 1 unit in 10 hours.....
There is actually no energy efficient light bulbs in a way to interpret in physical determination. Energy efficient means less Watts required per hour compared to non energy efficient.
Yes A 100watt light bulb left on for 10 hours will use a much electricity as a 1 Kilowatt fire left on for one hour. An energy efficient light bulb giving out the same amount of light as a 100watt bulb, only actually uses 20watts of electricity. That is 1/5th of the electricity, it will need to be on for 50 hours to use as much as a 1 Kilowatt fire left on for one hour. This will reduce your electric bill but the bulbs are more expensive than old 100watt bulbs (but the energy efficient bulbs last 6-8 times longer! so this balances out).
The power rating of a light bulb is measured in watts (W), which represents the amount of electrical energy it consumes per unit of time. If a light bulb has a power rating of 60 watts (for example), it means it consumes 60 watt-hours of energy in one hour of operation.
we should use CFL as they do not produce heat energy thus saving electricity. After using CFL for an hour we can remove it bare hand as per proving that CFL's do not produce large amount of heat energy. Thus saving electricity and reduces bill..!

A KW is an amount of power and the hour is how long you use it for , 1 kwh from the power company will cost about 20 cents and run about 15 light bulbs for 1 hour
In a lamp, the energy that is wasted primarily comes in the form of heat. Incandescent light bulbs, for example, waste a significant amount of energy as heat due to the inefficiency of converting electricity into light. This wasted heat energy contributes to the overall inefficiency of traditional incandescent bulbs compared to more energy-efficient options such as LED or CFL bulbs.
A regular incandescent bulb uses a lot more energy than a compact fluorescent to produce the same amount of light. Most energy used by an incandescent bulb is wasted as heat which does not give off visible light. Incandescent bulbs are cheaper to buy, but they have shorter lifetimes than other alternatives.
The Watt hour efficiency is the ratio of the amount of energy available during the discharge of an accumulator to the amount of energy put in during charge.
Light travels at 300,000 metres per second, about 1 million kilometres per hour, or about 671,000 miles per hour. Matter, including humans, cannot travel at light speed as it would require an infinite amount of energy.
Well, if they're both 40 watt bulbs they use the same amount of electricity. But incandescent bulbs produce a lot of heat as well as light. Fluorescent bulbs don't produce (much) heat, so they can use their power to produce light. So you can use fluorescent bulbs of lower wattage to produce the same amount of light.So for the same amount of light, fluorescent bulbs use less electricity than incandescent bulbs.
A 400-watt light uses energy at the rate of 0.4 kilowatt. In 1 hour, it uses 0.4 kilowatt-hour of energy.
