How and can you gather energy just by a light bulbs heat and light?

theoretically you could use the heat from the bulb to drive a thermodynamic cycle. The energy you would be able to generate would be so low, it wouldn't be worth it.

Can electrical energy be converted into light and heat energy?
Yes. Consider lightning, or light bulbs.
Low heat light bulbs produce less light but save on energy costs true or false?
False. Low heat light bulbs can produce the same amount of light, and also save on energy.
What energy is wasted in light bulbs?
Some of the electrical energy is given off as heat not visible light.
How is the new light bulbs energy renewed?
The energy put into the bulb is converted to heat and light. Low-energy bulbs just use less electrical energy to keep them bright.
Does energy efficient light bulbs produce less amount of heat than non-energy efficient light bulbs?
Yes, non energy efficient bulbs like the incandescents waste around 90% of there energy in the form of heat. LEDs and CFLs don't even come close.
What are the light bulbs that use a wire to conduct heat to male it glow?
It might be the energy saving bulbs.
What energy transformations take place when electrical energy is applied to light bulbs?
Electrical energy gets converted to light and heat energy.
Does radiant energy serve a useful purpose?
The heat and light we receive from the sun is radiant energy, as is the light we obtain from light bulbs.
Why can light bulbs be called heat bulbs?
Heat bulbs would be a more appropriate name because incandescent bulbs transform 90% of electricity received into heat and 10% into light. New Compact Fluorescent light bulbs use only 20% to 30% of the energy needed to power a standard bulb for the same wattage.
Why is the power of a light bulb large?
Most light bulbs waste energy as heat. Even LEDs. Large light bulbs require more power.
Other than light what two other forms of energy are in light bulbs?
I'm assuming that the light bulbs you're referring to are the normal light bulbs... Heat energy and electrical energy... that like cookies What do you mean by that like cookies alot??????????? Cookies are good...yum yum..
Does light bulbs convert into chemical energy?
No. The energy that goes into a light bulb is electrical energy, the energy that comes out is electromagnetic radiation, which we perceive as mostly heat and some light.
