1kilowatt = 1000 watts
but you cannot compare a kilowatt hour to a watt, the extra dimension of time changes what is being measured. The watt is a measure of power. The watt second and the kilowatt hour is energy. The misunderstanding comes from our use of the term POWER COMPANY for our electricity suppliers. They bill us in kilowatt hours which is energy, not power.

How do you convert 1500 killiwat hours to joule?
1 kilowatt = 1,000 watts1 watt = 1 joule per second1 hour = 3,600 seconds(1,500 kilowatt-hour) x (1,000 watt / kilowatt) x (1 joule / watt-second) x (3,600 second / hour) =(1,500 x 1,000 x 3,600) x (kilowatt - hour - watt - joule- second) / (kilowatt - watt - second - hour)= 5,400,000,000 joules
How many units consumed per 24 hours of megawatt mot er?
Watt, kilowatt, or megawatt are units of power (energy/time). A watt is 1 joule/second. A kilowatt is a thousand joules per second. A kilowatt is also 1 kWh/hour (kilowatt-hour / hour). Since you would usually pay per kilowatt-hour, you might be more interested in the number of kilowatt-hours. A megawatt is a million joules per second - or a thousand kWh/hour.
How many KWh will one 250 Watt solar panel generate in one day Probably using 6.5 hours sunlight Southern California?
Use the formula: energy = power x time If energy is in watts and time is in hours, power will be in watt-hours. Divide that by 1000 to get kWh. Alternately, you can convert watt to kilowatt before doing the multiplication - in that case, kilowatt x hours = kilowatt-hours.
How many kilowatt-hours does a 50 watt fluorescent light bulb use in 24 hours?
50 watts is 0.05 kilowatts, so in 24 hours it uses 0.05 x 24 kilowatt-hours, or 1.2 kilowatt-hours of energy.
A 100 watt light bulb left on for 24hrs how many kilowatts does it draw in a thirty day period?
1 kilowatt is equal to 1,000 watts, so a 100 watt bulb uses .1 kilowatt. Technically, your home or business meter base measures kilowatt hours, meaning that it measures both the kilowatts and the amount of time. If you turn on 10 100 watt bulbs for 1 second, that would be a kilowatt, but the amount of power use would be insignificant. So... To calculate the kilowatt hours: .1 kilowatts (from above, knowing the energy use of the bulb) Multiplied by 24 hours in a day Multiplied by 30 days... .1(kilowatts) * 24(hours)* 30(hours in a day) = 72 kilowatt hours
How do you convert 1500 killiwat hours to joule?
1 kilowatt = 1,000 watts1 watt = 1 joule per second1 hour = 3,600 seconds(1,500 kilowatt-hour) x (1,000 watt / kilowatt) x (1 joule / watt-second) x (3,600 second / hour) =(1,500 x 1,000 x 3,600) x (kilowatt - hour - watt - joule- second) / (kilowatt - watt - second - hour)= 5,400,000,000 joules
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 kilowatts would a 400watt light use in a hour?
A 400-watt light uses energy at the rate of 0.4 kilowatt. In 1 hour, it uses 0.4 kilowatt-hour of energy.
How many units consumed per 24 hours of megawatt mot er?
Watt, kilowatt, or megawatt are units of power (energy/time). A watt is 1 joule/second. A kilowatt is a thousand joules per second. A kilowatt is also 1 kWh/hour (kilowatt-hour / hour). Since you would usually pay per kilowatt-hour, you might be more interested in the number of kilowatt-hours. A megawatt is a million joules per second - or a thousand kWh/hour.
How many kilowatt-hours do 50 w used for 12h equal?
A Kilowatt hour is 1000 watts per hour. A 50 watt bulb will use just 50 watts per hour. Therefore over 12 hours the 50 watt bulb will use 50*12 watts = 600 watts or 0.6 of a kilowatt hour.
How many kilowatts per hour consumed by a 1000 watt heater?
The heater uses 1000 watts of power at every instant it is running. If it runs for 1 hour, it uses 1000 watt-hours of energy. That is called a kilowatt-hour or a Unit. So it it uses 1 kilowatt-hour per hour.
How many kwh is used by a 60 watt bulb?
A kilowatt is 1,000 watts. A 60 watt bulb uses 60 watts in an hour. So, in half an hour it uses 30 watts. Now if a kilowatt costs 20 cents, what does 0.03 kilowatt cost?
How many kilowatt hours KWh are used to light a 30 watt light bulb in 8?
A 30-watt bulb uses 0.03 kilowatt-hours every hour, or 30 kilowatt-hours in 1000 hours. To find the kilowatt-hours, multiply 0.03 by the time in hours.
How many watt is equal to 1kilowatt?
1 kilowatt = 1000 watt ==> 1 watt = 0.001 kilowatt
How many kilowatt-hours does a oven use per hour?
Watts does not have a time component to it; so you should have asked, "How many kilowatt-hours does an oven use per hour?' For example, if the oven uses 1600 watts, then in one hour, it would use 1600 watt-hours, or 1.6 kilowatt-hours.
English unit of work and energy?
-- foot-pound -- watt-second -- watt-hour -- kilowatt-hour -- horsepower-hour -- inch-pound SI unit: Joule
How do you calculate the Monthly cost of using a 700 watt refrigerator that runs for 10 hours a day at a cost of 0.09 Killowatts per hour?
(700 watts) x (10 hours/day) x (30 days/month) x (1 kilowatt / 1,000 watts) =(700 x 10 x 30 / 1,000) (watt - hour - day - kilowatt / day - month - watt) =210 kilowatt-hour / monthWe're guessing that the actual cost of your electric energy is $0.09 per kilowatt-hour.(210 kilowatt-hour / month) x ($0.09 / kilowatt-hour) = $18.90 per month .
