When a lamp is turned on electrical energy changes into what form of energy?

The older generation of bulb(one in witch heating metal coil was used) convert electrical energy into both heat and light energy and consume more energy as some energy is lost as a heat energy. The newer generation of electrical bulb (C.F.L.) convert almost all electrical energy into light energy and consume much less electrical energy.

∙ 12y ago-- heat
-- light
(Both are the same form of energy -- electromagnetic --
but with different wavelengths.)

∙ 8y agowhen a lamp is switched on, electrical energy is transformed into "light",
which also produces an amount of light.

What forms of energy does lightning produce?
they form sound energy, electrical energy, heat energy, light energy <d0nz04>
What is the energy form of falling rocks from the top of a mountain?
Electrical Energy
What are the energy transfer for fossil fuel power plants?
When a fossil fuel is burned chemical energy that is stored within the fuel is released via combustion. This then turns into steam which turns turbines to form electrical energy. So Chemical to heat to mechanical to electrical
A light bulb converts 10 percent of the electrical energy and thermal energy it uses into radiant energymake a hypothesys about the other form of energy produced?
A lightbulb usually won't use thermal energy, only electrical energy. By conservation of energy, if 10% of the electrical energy is converted into radiant energy, the remainder is wasted - basically as heat.
When fossil fuels are burned what is coverted to kinetic energy?
A fossil fuel contains chemical energy. When it is burned this is turned into thermal or heat energy. This then may be converted into some other form including kinetic energy.
What happens when a lamp plugged into an electric outlet is turned on?
the form of energy changes and the total of energy increases
What type of energy changes from one form to another when a light bulb is turned on?
first electrical,light,chemical,thermal
What are some ways that energy changes form in a car?
It changes electrical energy to thermal energy and light energy
Describe the way energy changes form when an electric light is turned on?
radiant energy
What energy changes in a computer?
Starting energy form: Chemical energy End energy: Electrical energy--> heat,sound,light energy
How energy can change?
It changes from one form into another routinely. Electrical energy changes into mechanical energy (and heat) in an electric motor. Light energy changes into electrical energy (and heat) in a solar cell. Chemical energy (in coal for example) is changed into heat energy (when the coal is burned) which can raise steam under pressure to drive a turbine, converting most of the the heat energy to mechanical energy, which then drives a generator to convert the mechanical energy to electrical energy. Energy is neither created nor destroyed, but changes from one form to another.
Plug a lamp into an electrical socket and you turn electrical energy into this form of energy?
-- None at all if the lamp is switched off.-- If the lamp is switched on, then electrical energy is turned into a little bit ofvisible light energy and a comparatively larger quantity of heat energy.
Is hot chemical or physical?
Heat is a form of energy (the kinetic energy present in the vibrations of atoms or molecules). Radiant energy can be turned into heat energy. Potential energy can be turned into heat energy, nuclear energy can be turned into heat energy, electrical energy can be turned into heat energy, magnetic field energy can be turned into heat energy and chemical energy can be turned into heat energy. There is no such thing as "physical" energy (in terms of Physics). Also your use of the term "evolved" can not be applied to a changing in type of energy, the term refers to the genesis of living things.
Which family does the microphone belong to?
Its a transducer - it changes one form of energy into another (sound to electrical).
How can energy be transformed from one form to another?
In many ways. For hence, the sun; radiant energy, can be turned to plants; chemical energy. Or electrical energy by solar panels. Coal can become electrical energy, which could be used by a fan.
Tranducer is a device that?
changes one form of energy to another form of energy. they convert mechanical, magnetic, thermal, optical, etc. into electrical voltages and currents.
What is the name of a system that converts thermal energy into a form of useful mechanical or electrical energy?
Energy transformation is the process that occurs when energy changes from one form to another. A transducer is the device that allows one form of energy to change to another form.
