A watt is a unit of power: what is required is probably the amount of energy - which is measured in joules.

How many watts is required to heat 1 gallon of water from 50 degrees F to 180 degrees F?
"Watt" is a rate of moving energy. The more watts you use, the faster the waterwill heat up. The fewer watts you use, the slower it will heat. If you can affordthe time to wait, then any amount of power will do the job, no matter how small.
How many watts produce to raise the temp of 1 cubic meter water to 1 degree centgrade?
That depends how fast you want to do this. Please note that "watt" is not a unit of energy, it's a unit of power (energy per time unit).
How many watts to raise temperature of a room by 1 degree c?
Depends on the size of the room (its thermal capacity) and the efficiency of the heating.
How many degrees will cause the room temperature to rise if the watts are 75 degrees?
The question is so hopelessly confused that I can't even make an answerable question out of what's there.
Which could not be units for a vector quantity?
-- dollars -- weeks -- kilograms -- degrees (of temperature) -- pages -- watts -- decibels -- joules -- lumens
How much wattage is needed to raise 60 liters of cold water to 25 degrees?
As much or as little as you want. Watt is a unit of power, not of energy. If you use less watts, it will take longer to heat the water, but it will still work.
How much heat does a kilowatt have?
A watt is a measure of energy, which may or may not be heat, but heat is considered to be the simplest form of energy and is an easy way to compare amounts of energy. Another measure of energy that is easy to work with is a calorie, which is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree C. In these terms without special conditions, this applies only between 0 and 100 degrees C, because freezing and boiling make the equations much more complicated. A watt is approximately 86 calories, meaning that applied to a gram of water would raise its temperature by 86 degrees centigrade. A kilowatt is 1000 watts meaning that it could raise the temperature of that gram of water by 86000 degrees--at least theoretically, but that image is all but useless. So let's say that a kilowatt represents enough heat to raise the temperature of a liter (1000 g) of water by 86 degrees C.
How many degrees is 40 watts?
The question makes no sense. It is like asking how many gallons make a foot.
How can you change degrees into watts?
350degrees
How many watts are required to raise 1 gallon of water 1 degree F?
1 gallon of water is 4540 cc and 1 degree F is 0.555 degrees C, so raising 4540 cc of water by 0.555 degree C would take 4540x0.555 calories, or 2520 calories. Multiply by 4.2 to convert to joules which gives 10590 joules. Therefore the energy required is 10590 joules which is the same as 10590 watt-seconds. That could be done by 100 watts in 105.9 seconds, or 1000 watts in 10.59 seconds.

How do you calculate gallons per hour from wattage on a pump?
Pumps don't have wattage but the motors that drive them do. motors are rated in amps and volts. if you multiply amps times volts you get watts. Gallons per hour are listed on pumps or can be measured by running the pump for a calculated time and measuring the gallons. Run the pump 1 min and measure the water and multiply by 60 and you have gallons per hour. A kilowatt/hour is the equivalent of using 1000 watts for one hour, 100 watts for 10 hours, or even one watt for 1000 hours. Any combination of watts times hours that equals 1000, is one kilowatt/hour's worth of power used. (Wiki)
How many volts is 2 amps?
While Amps and Volts are both units of electrity, they are quite independant. Total electrical energy is measured in "watts". Amps * Volts = Watts. You can get 100 Watts with 10 Volts @ 10 Amps. You can get 100 Watts with 100 Volts @ 1 Amp. You can get 100 Watts with 1,000 Volts at 0.1 Amp. It's like asking, "How do you get water flow of 20 gallons per minute?" You COULD have a 3 ft diameter pipe with very low pressure, or you COULD have a 1/2 inch pipe with very HIGH pressure. Both could give you the desired 20 gallons per minute.
How many watts does an electric water heater use?
for a large one it is 4,000 watts and for a smaller one it is 1,000 watts
What does boiler horsepower mean?
Boiler horsepower equals 9809.5 watts. It was used for rating steam boilers and is equivalent to 34.5 pounds (about 15.6 kg) of water evaporated per hour at 212 degrees Fahrenheit (100 degrees Celsius).
How many watts does a water dispenser use?
it may use 15 to 25 watts
How does the number of watts in a light bulb affect how fast water evaporates?
At high temperature (high power in watts) water is evaporated faster.
