To find the power output of a light bulb, you can use the formula ( P = V \times I ), where ( P ) is the power in watts, ( V ) is the voltage across the bulb in volts, and ( I ) is the current flowing through it in amperes. You can measure the voltage using a voltmeter and the current with an ammeter. Alternatively, if the bulb has a specified wattage rating (e.g., 60W), that value represents its power output directly.

Light bulb in the home - alternating current (A/C) Light bulb in a car - direct current (D/C) Output of a battery charger - direct current Input of a battery charger - usually alternating current


Can a light bulb work on a DC voltage?

It can, but if you're wanting to run a 120v light bulb on DC, you'll need 120v DC to get the rated output. That's a lot of batteries. It's easier, and more sensible, to find a DC rated light bulb, such as an RV bulb.

How do you find intensity of bulb?

To find the intensity of a bulb, you can use the formula I = P / A, where I is the intensity, P is the power of the bulb in watts, and A is the area over which the light is spread. Alternatively, you can use a light meter to measure the intensity directly in illuminance units such as lux or foot-candles.

How many amps in a low voltage light bulb?

Look on the light bulb for the voltage and the power in watts. Then divide the watts by the voltage and that gives the amps. Some CFL bulbs also state the current as well as the voltage and power, which is because they can have a poor power factor.


1999 Ford Explore All the light bulbs are working but my left brake light isn't Would it be the brake light switch if the right brake light is still working?

No. I am assuming that you first replaced the bulb? If you did replace the bulb, then I would check to see if you are getting power to the bulb socket. If no power is getting to the socket, you then need to find the break in the electric lines going to the socket.


Would you expect to find DC or AC in the filament of a light bulb in your home?

What are the power of light bulbs meauserd in?

The unit of measurement used to find the power of the bulb is watts. Voltage is the flow of electricity, so make sure not to confuse the two.
