You pay for electricity on time of use. As long as the light is on you are paying for it. Shut it off and you are not paying because you are not consuming any energy.
Because the switch has a fault and needs replacing before you waste a whole lot of energy (which you pay for).
A lot
electrical and light energy heat goes as waste
Mainly heat.
Incandescente light bulbs waste quite a bit more energy than most alternatives.
Light, sound, waste heat.
The energy transfer is: chemical --> light and heat the heat is the waste product
Light, of course, since that's what the light bulb is designed to produce. There is also waste energy, as heat, and (to a small extent) as sound.
No, when it is not in use, the microwave would not have a light on. Why would you want the light on when you are not using it and waste energy?
The light bulb uses electrical energy, and produces light, as well as waste heat. The act of turning it on in itself uses a small amount of energy stored in your muscles.
electrical, kinetic, light, sound and heat (waste).
Light and sound as well as heat, which is a waste product.
