How is energy transferred from the battery to the bulb of a torch or flashlight?
in battery it is chemical energy, from the line, it is electrical energy, through the emitter, it is the light energy.
What energy changes take place when a battery is connected to a bulb?
Chemical Electrical Light
Would taking a light bulb from a parallel circuit affect the energy transfer?
Yes, of course. If the light bulb is connected, it takes energy from the circuit. IF it is taken away, it doesn't.
What is the source of energy in a light bulb?
Electricity is the source of energy in a light bulb.
When energy runs through a light bulb what kind of energy does the light bulb produce?
A light bulb uses electrical energy, and produces light, as well as heat.
How can the stored energy in a battery be converted to light energy?
By connecting a bulb to the battery.
Does a larger battery contain more energy than a smaller light bulb?
A light bulb contains no energy so, Yes, a battery of any size contains more energy than any light bulb.
Describe the energy transformations that take place when a battery is connected to a light bulb in a series circuit?
The battery connected to the bulb has the potential chemical energy in it when it is connected by means of wire to the bulb the chemical energy in the battery is converted to the electrical energy which flows through the wire to the bulb glows the bulb which is a form of light energy after some time the bulb starts emitting heat which is heat energy.
Can a potato light a light bulb better than a battery?
i would say no because the battery has a lot of energy to pass to the light bulb and not a pataoe
If a light bulb was replaced with a battery what would be the flow of energy?
exploding battery?
What kind of energy conversion is a flaslight?
battery ---> light bulb chemical energy ---> electromagnetic energy (heat and light)
Why does the energy from a battery transfer into the light bulb and causes it 2 light up?
charge travels from one battery contact to another one through the bulb
How is energy transferred from the battery to the bulb of a torch or flashlight?
in battery it is chemical energy, from the line, it is electrical energy, through the emitter, it is the light energy.
A battery and a light bulb in a complete circuit changes electrical energy into what energy?
Light energy (EM visible radiation) plus thermal energy (through heating the bulb filament)
Different color light bulb affect how much energy it has?
No, Colored light bulbs holds the same amount of energy a regular light bulb holds.
What is the starting and finishing energy of a light bulb?
Zero,because the distance has no affect to convert electric energy into light energy.
If you add an extra battery to a circuit containing a bulb how will this affect the bulb?
The bulb becomes brighter unless it is too much till it shot-circuits.
