What if your customer has connected a 100-watt microwave oven and a 600-watt mixer to a 15-amp branch service line for the kitchen what is the actual current draw and will the circuit breaker trip if?

A simple (and I do mean simple) formula is approximately 100 watts per amp. So, 700 watts total equals 7 amps, with 8 amps to spare on the 15 amp circuit breaker.
It's really a bit more complicated than that, considering rms voltage/current equation, but it's close enough for government use. ;)

What is the fuse rating of 600watt appliance on a 220 volt supply?
The fuse rating should be 5 amps
Can you hook a 600watt auto amp to a 1200watt auto sub?
You can, but the Sub will not put out its full sound power.
Would using 6 600watt lights 12 hours a day every day cost on electricity?
Yes.
How many watts per hour does a 6.0 diesel 350 Ford block heater use?
Ford OEM block heaters are all 600watt (5.3 amp x 115 volt). aftermarket heaters are available up to 1000watt. (1 kilowatt).
What inverter would you need to run 600watt light and could also put a heavy duty battery charger on to charge the battery bk up that runs the inverter in the first place and can it be done free power?
There is no free power. Inverters always waste some power; they are not 100% efficient. You can't take as much power out of a battery as you put in to it.
How many amps does a 600watt ballast pull?
Watts = Amps x Volts, so 600 W / 240 V = 2.5 A 600 W / 120 V = 5 A 600 W rated balast is more like 660 W in realty, so to be safe, plan for 3A pulled per ballast. P.S. New digital balasts are much closer to 600 W, something in 610 - 620 W range.
If 200 and 600 watt bulbs are fed with a same voltage source then the resistance of 200watt bulb when compared to 600watt bulb?
The resistance of the bulbs doesn't depend on the voltage source. They can be wrapped in tissue in cardboard boxes in the drawer. If one bulb is designed to dissipate 200 watts and another is designed to dissipate 600 watts when they're both energized by the same voltage, whatever that is, then the 200-watt bulb has three times the resistance of the 600-watter.
Newly built PC turns on and loads into BIOS then shuts down.?
My build is: Q6600 Biostar tForce Motherboard 8800GTS 512MB 300GB HD 2GB 1066 Ram (I only have 1 in atm) 600Watt OCZ GameXStream PSU The problem is that my system turns on (not every time it seems as if I have to wait an hour in between tries) and boots into the BIOS then it asks me to insert a something to load an OS. Usually when it gets to this point it just shuts down no beeps or anything.
How many watts do you need to grow a weed plant?
100 watts minimum per plant prox. 2000 lummens is great but can take more, up to 100.000 lummens too kill the plant. if you have LED grow light then you will need less Watts like 90watts LED is like 400-600watt MH/HPS vise versa. Buy nasa testet LED grow light or wich thay use. Hmm i think that all. Regards
