What types of math problems can be solved using the GCF?
For reducing fractions to their lowest terms
I am trying to make a simple balloon detonator using an rf remote but the instruction states i need small gauge filament what is this?
A small gauge filament is a thin wire with a high melting point, just like the filament in light bulbs. That filament will heat up when electricity will pass through it. If you have enough battery power, I would suggest using a piece if pencil lead.
How does electric lamp function using electricity?
You plug it in and it lights up. Current flowing in the filament makes it white hot, and it emits light.

How do you make a light bulb work without electricity?
No power is used. The lamp in the light fixture is the load of the circuit. The load resistance is what makes the current flow. When the current flows through the filament's resistance, heat and light are generated. With no lamp in the fixture, the circuit's voltage potential is still at the socket contact points and if touched could cause you a shock. This is a good reason to shut the fixture off at the switch when removing the burnt out bulb and replacing it with a new one.
If a light bulb is burned out and the switch is on are you still using electricity?
A standard filament bulb works on the principle that it gets hot and glows when a current is passed through it. If the filament has burned out (blown) it is open circuit and no current can flow. Therefore you are not using any electricity even if the switch is still on It may still use power if it is a lighted switch. Find a licensed electrician at www.contraxtor.com
What is Drawn a model of electricity to explain how the circuit works using the terms current and voltage correctly?
the voltage pushes
How electrical energy converted in to light energy?
Electricity can be converted to light using light bulb. An incandescence light bulb produce light by passing electricity through filament (resistance) and create heat so hot that it radiate out light. It also can produce light using Electro-luminescence effect as in LED lamb or using ionized gas discharged as in Fluorescent lamb.
How can you solved math?
By using mathematics
Why problems can be solved using gcf?
Reducing equivalent fractions to their simplest form.
Did Lewis Howard Latimer light bulb with a carbon filament?
yes he improved the light bulb that Edison invented using the carbon filament.
How does light from a flashlight travel?
A flash light generally makes light using a light bulb, which contains a filament. The filament is typically made from tungsten. It is very thin, but capable of withstanding extremely high temperatures. Electricity, from an internal power source, is passed through the filament. The filament has a resistance, so the current creates a very large heat in the wire. Because the wire is so thin, it heats up very quickly, and this excess energy is given out as light, and heat.
