Given: Power P = 100 W.

Reference power Po = 10^−3 W = 1 mW.

Reference power level LPo = 0 dB.

Get power P when entering power level LP:

P = Po×10^(LI/10) W = 10^−3×10^(LP/10) W.

Get power level LI in dB when entering power P in W.

LP = 10×log (P / Po) dB = 10×log (P / 10^−3) = 50 dB.

The reference power may be different, then the power level will be different.

To calculate the amperage when given the power in watts, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. If we assume a standard voltage of 120V in a household circuit, then 100 watts would be approximately 0.83 amps.

.83 amps @ 120 volts or .416 at 220 volts. Watts / volts = amps

A 100 W bulb consumes a power of 100 watts, so that in one hour it would absorb 100 watt-hours of energy, or in 10 hours it would use 1000 watt-hours or 1 kilowatt-hour of energy.

There are zero amps in 100 watts. The equation for amperage is I = W/E. Without a voltage or resistivity component, no answer can be given.
