The current flowing through a bulb is equal to the (voltage across the bulb) divided by the
(bulb resistance), and can be expressed in Amperes.
The rate at which the bulb dissipates energy is equal to (voltage across the bulb)
times (current through the bulb), and can be expressed in watts.

How much current flow in 1 watt bulb?
Everything Depends on the voltage supply ...... Current flow (Amp) = Watt / Voltage the Current flow will be 1 amp if voltage is 1 V the Current flow will be 0.5 amp if voltage is 2 V the Current flow will be 0.25 amp if voltage is 4 V and so on.......
What can you infer about the amount of electric current flowing through each bulb in the circuit as each bulb is added?
The current is the same going into a bulb as it is coming out.
The electrical power lightbulbs is measured in what unit?
Watt
The problems of electricity two light bulbs of 100 watt and one 60 watt both operation in a 220V circuit. Which bulb has the higher resistance and which bulb carries the greater current?
A 100 watt 220 volt light bulb (or anything consuming 100 watts on 220 volts) draws 100/220, or .45 Amps. It will also have about 220²/100, or 484 ohms resistance. A 60 watt 220 volt light bulb (or anything consuming 60 watts on 220 volts) draws 60/220, or .27 Amps. It will also have about 220²/60, or 807 ohms resistance.
A W bulb and a W bulb are connected in series in a circuit Which bulb has the greater current flowing in it?
A series circuit is where there is only one path for the current. As a result, and as a direct consequence of Kirchoff's current law, the current at every point in a series circuit is the same. The two bulbs have the same current flowing through them.
