Remember "Watt" is a unit of power, that is energy per unit time.

1 W= 1 Joule/second.

here 600 W (600 J/s) is the power which a computer will use in a given period of time and it will be wrong to say that it is per hour or day, as time is already included in it.

so 600 W means 600 joules of energy consumed in 1 second.

so, 600 W computer for one hour will consume 600 watt hours (.6 KWH) of electricity.

Ok.

Watts are a measure of power, not energy. So, 600 watts per computer refers to the rate at which the computer consumes energy, not the total energy consumed over a specific period of time. To calculate the energy consumed over time, you would need to multiply the power (in watts) by the time (in hours).

How many watts does a two door refrigerator use in an hour?

When the motor is running it uses the same power - number of watts - all the time. To find the energy used (in watt-hours) you multiply the watts used by the total time in hours. So if it uses 500 watts and is on for 3 minutes each hour, it uses 500x3/60 watt hours each hour, or 600 watt-hours in one day.


How many watts does a mini refrigerator use per day?

A mini refrigerator uses about 70 watts per hour or 0.07 KWH.Therefore it uses about 24 times 0.07 KWH, or 1.68 Kilowatt Hours per day.There are varied sizes of "mini refrigerators" and varying degrees ofinsulation, so the wattage may vary from 40 watts per hour to 100 watts per hour or .96 KWH to 2.4 KWH per day


How many KWh does a 600 watt bulb use?

I'm surprised that you are asking about a 600 watt flourescent tube, since most flourescent tubes are in the region of 30 to 80 watts - I can't think where you would find such a huge flourescent tube, so you might have meant a 60 watt tube. However, any electrical apparatus rated at 600 wats, whether it's a flourescent tube or a motor or a heater uses six tenths of a unit of electricity in one hour. 1000 watts would use one unit in one hour.


How many watts are used in the average home every hour?

The number of watts used per hour is defined as a watt-hour or "wh". Electricity is normally billed as kilowatt hours or 1,000 watts per hour. Your electric bill will give you KWH number for the month so you could divide this by (24 x 30) to get an hourly average. As an example of the wide range of usage I have a town house rental that used 20 KWH in a month, and another large residence that used 2,900 KWH in a month. In this case the smaller house averaged 27.7 watts per hour and the larger house 4028 watts per hour.This answer is incorrect. A watt hour is not 'the number of watts used per hour'. It is the number of watts times the number of hours. There is no such thing as 'watts per hour'.


How much will it cost to run a 185 watts per day?

To calculate the cost of running a device that consumes 185 watts per day, you need to know the cost of electricity per kilowatt-hour. Assuming an average cost of $0.12 per kWh, running a 185-watt device for 24 hours a day would cost about $0.50 per day (185 watts / 1000 * 24 hours * $0.12).
