Filipino scientist and their contributions?
There are many filipino scientists who have made their contributions over the years, They basically cover all fields of science. Some of them have made huge contributions to the world. One such person is Felix Maramba who created a power generator to run from coconut oil.Another is Agapito Flores who created the fluorescent lamp or bulb.
Where will a full range of colors be better seen in a room with fluorescent or outside under daylight?
Daylight will have a more complete spectrum. An interesting experiment is to hold a CD close to a fluorescent lamp. The CD will act as a primitive diffraction grating, and you'll see distinct blobs of colour - not a continuous rainbow spectrum. You're seeing the light emitted by the various phosphors in the fluorescent tube.
10 man-made sources of light?
1. Incandescent light bulb 2. Halogen light bulb 3. Compact fluorescent light bulb 4. Light emitting diode (LED) 5. Mercury vapor light bulb 6. Neon light 7. High intensity discharge lamps 8. Carbon arc lamp 9. laser 10. kerosene lamp
What is the difference between incandescent and fluorescent light bulbs?
Incandescent lightbulbs have an electrical circuit that passes through a tungsten wire. As the electricity flows, the tungsten is heated up to a point where it emits light waves. Gases (xenon, I think) help sustain the wire until it breaks. This is when the light stops and needs to be replaced. (the tungsten also emits heat when lit) Incandescent lights have the full spectrum of colors. Fluorescent bulbs are filled with a gas and a bit of mercury. Electricity gives the ions in the gas energy, which is released in the form of light. This method sustains the bulb far longer than an incandescent lightbulb. Fluorescents release much less heat, making them more energy efficient. However, the spectrum of the fluorescent bulb is missing a few colors of the spectrum, which makes the spectrum look cool and incredibly weird.A fluorescent lamp or fluorescent tube is a gas-discharge lamp that uses electricity to excite mercury vapor. The excited mercury atoms produce short-wave ultraviolet light that then causes a phosphor coating on the inside of the bulb to fluoresce (glow), producing visible light.
What happens to the gas inside a fluorescent light when it is switched on?
A flourescent lamp is a gas-discharge lamp that uses electricity to excite mercury vapor in argon or neon gas, resulting in a plasma that produces short-wave ultraviolet light. This light then causes a phosphor to fluoresce, producing visible light.

About agapito flores?
Agapito Flores, who was born in Guiguinto, Bulacan, Philippines, on September 28, 1897, has been said by some as being the inventor of the first fluorescent lamp. The dates are all wrong for this being possible, though. He died in 1943.
