Not The size... its the Watts. The more watts you have the hotter and more energy it uses. Unless you go with LED. They are a lil expensive right now but will cost less to run, and last years.

Not really, in that the physical size of the bulb can't be used to predict its power requirements. However, all else being equal, for two bulbs of the same basic construction the one that's physically larger will tend to use more energy.

How do you prove that it is the wattage and not the physical size of a light bulb that matters for energy use?

Energy use is measured in watts. The watts used by a light bulb is on the package or the bulb. Find bulbs with the same wattage but different physical sizes if you want to prove this.

How does the distance from a page to a light bulb affect the amount of light that illuminates the paper's surface?

The intensity of light or other linear waves radiating from a source is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source; so an object (of the same size) twice as far away, receives only one-quarter the energy.
