Convert the watts to kilowatts (divide watts by 1000), and multiply the result by the number of hours. Answer is in kWh, the unit used by the electrical companies for billing.

∙ 12y agoA 60W bulb will use 60W X 1 hour / 1000. this will give you the KWh - the units your electricity company uses to charge you.So 60 X 1 =6060/1000 =0.060 Kwh
Watts = Volts X Amps. Amps=Watt / Volts. So, with a 240V mains, a 60W bulb draws 0.25amps. On a 12 system (car/auto) a 60W bulb draws 5 amps. On a 110V mains, a 60W bulb draws .55 Amps.
Thsi depends on the light bulb specification. For example if you buy a standard 60W light bulb from your supmarket then this will consume 0.06kilowatts. Its simple just divide the wattage stated on the light bulb by 1000 to give you the kilowatts
In each hour two 60W blankets will use 120W. 120W for 9 hours = 1080 W or 1.08 Kilowatts.
Generally speaking, the rated power of any light fitting ('luminaire'), including a table lamp, is determined by the enclosure, shade, or reflector, rather than its socket. What it comes down to is (a) whether the rate of heat transfer away from the lamp is sufficient to prevent the luminaire from overheating, and (b) whether the reflector/shade can withstand the resulting temperature.
The average lifetime of an incandescent bulb is around 2000 hours.

The output of bulbs varies. A typical output of a 60W incandescent bulb is 680 lumens.
The "w" in 60W on a light bulb stands for watts, which is a unit of power. In this case, 60W indicates the amount of power consumed by the light bulb while it is illuminated. A higher wattage typically corresponds to a brighter light output.
There are 60W, 75W, 100W, and 150W bulbs. No standard 110W.
Watts aren't a unit of light. Previously, light bulbs could be rated based entirely on their energy consumption. A 60W light bulb consumes 60W, and produces light accordingly. A 75W light bulb consumes more power, and produces a little more light. Newer bulb technology like LEDs and CFLs consume less power, but produce a greater number of lumens (or candlepower). Thus, light bulbs are starting to display the lumens, one of the units for measuring light intensity. Note that the readings can be misleading, as the lumens shown may have a weird distance compared to other bulbs.
There is insufficient information in the question to answer it. In series with what? Please restate the question.
A 60W light bulb consumes 1.44 kWh of electricity in a day (assuming it is on for 24 hours). The cost would depend on your electricity provider's rate per kWh, which varies but is typically around 14-20p per kWh in the UK.
The formula you are looking for is Watts/1000 x hours in the day x cost per kWh.so it is 1,500
