How does the filament in a light bulb work?
it is made of tungsten and is a resistor when current flows thru it it heats up and glows
What does the intensity of light bulb indicate?
It indicates that the light bulb must be high of voltage trough the current......
Why does the light bulb not work when the filament is broken?
A light bulb works by passing an electric current through the filament, which is usually made from a high resistance substance such as tungsten. When the current flows through, the filament glows which produces the light. When it burns out, no electricity passes and no glowing occurs. Source: i just know
Is a light bulb an insulator or conductor?
It is a conductor, but the filament is a resistor : as current flows through the filament, some of the energy is released as heat and light.
What causes electrical energy to be transformed into heat and light energy as a current flows in a light bulb?
Eletric current
What is bulb and its proccess?
A light bulb is an electric light that uses the process of a filament wire that is heated to produce an electrical current. When the electrical current passing throught the light bulb it produces light.
What did Einstein do 100 times to get it to work?
To build the light bulb.

When current flows in the tungsten filament of a light bulb the bulb converts what?
Electrical energy to heat and light.

Is a light bulb is a kind of lever?
No. A light bulb is a bulb that contains a filament that gets hot when electric current is passed through it.
How do you light up a light bulb with a battery?
You need: two pieces of wire, a battery, an electric light bulb to work on the same voltage as the battery and a bulb holder that fits the bulb.Connect one wire to the positive post of the battery and the other end of this wire to one of the terminals on the bulb holder.Connect the other wire to the negative post of the battery and the other end to the other terminal of the bulb holder. Screw the bulb into the holder and the bulb should light up.Another answerThere are many different types of light bulbs. Some, such as automobile lights and solar garden lights, were designed for use with batteries.Ordinary light bulbs have an electric wire that glows brightly when the right voltage is applied. These will work with either direct current from batteries or alternating current from a power line or generator, but the amount of voltage must be correct for the specific light bulb or, if the voltage is too low, it will not illuminate properly. If the voltage is too high the light bulb will be destroyed.Fluorescent light bulbs normally work from alternating current, but a direct current adapter called a DC inverter can be used to change battery power to alternating current.
Does the middle bulb on the tail light work?
If there is a bulb, it should work.
Would you expect to find direct or alternating current in the filament of a light bulb in your home the filament of a light bulb in a car the output of a battery charger?
Light bulb in the home - alternating current (A/C) Light bulb in a car - direct current (D/C) Output of a battery charger - direct current Input of a battery charger - usually alternating current
Is there enough current in a lemon or pineapple to light a small light bulb?
no
Is a light bulb a kind of lever?
No. A light bulb is a bulb that contains a filament that gets hot when electric current is passed through it.
What are the uses of the light bulb?
A bulb is not necessary in a circuit. A circuit is simply a series of connections that allows current to flow. A bulb, or a resistor, or something else, is simply a way to do useful work with that current flow, in the case of a bulb, converting power to light and heat.
