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.
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.
To calculate the watts, you can use the formula: Watts = Amps x Volts. In this case, 100 amps x 120 volts equals 12,000 watts.
To convert watts to amps, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. Assuming a standard voltage of 120V, 1500 watts would be equivalent to 12.5 amps (1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 amps).
If each spotlight is rated at 100 watts, together they would use 200 watts. To convert watts to amps, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. Assuming a standard voltage of 120V in a household setting, the double 100 watt spotlight would use approximately 1.67 amps.
To calculate the amperage, you can use the formula: Amperes = Watts / Volts. So for a 100-watt bulb connected to a 240-volt source, the amperage would be 0.42 Amps.
Since watts and volt-amps are different units of power, you cannot directly convert watts to volt-amps without considering the power factor of the load. In an ideal resistive circuit, 100 watts would be equivalent to 100 volt-amps. However, in practical applications with reactive components, the relationship between watts and volt-amps can vary.
