When electric current flows through the tiny wire inside the light bulb, the electrical
energy heats the wire so hot that it radiates light and heat. If the wire was in air,
it would immediately burn up. But all the air has been removed from the light bulb,
so the wire lasts for a while even though it's so hot.

Why do you say turn on the light?
You say "turn on the light" because that is what you do. Turning on a light means to flip the electric switch from "off" (where there is no electricity and the light is dark) to "on" (where there is electricity and the light is glowing).
What happens when you turn on a light?
When you turn on a light, electricity flows through the light bulb's filament, causing it to heat up and produce light.
Good thought or slogan on saving electricity?
turn off light,save electricity
What happens when you turn off the light what happened to the electricity?
When you turn off a light, you are breaking the circuit that allows electricity to flow through the light bulb, causing the light bulb to turn off. The electricity in the circuit is still present and will continue to flow until the power source is disconnected or turned off.
When you turn on a light bulb in your house you convert?
Electricity to visible light and heat as a by product.
Can you use electricity on Passover?
Yes (During the holiday, you can't turn on a light, turn off a light, turn on a car, turn off a car etc. But during The intermediate days, you can.)
How do light dimmers save electricity?
Light dimmers save electricity by reducing the amount of power that is sent to the light bulb, which in turn decreases the brightness of the light. By using less power, light dimmers help to lower energy consumption and ultimately save electricity.
What type of electricity moves along a path way turn on the light?
Electricity flows through a pathway to turn on a light. It is typically alternating current (AC) electricity that is used in homes and buildings to power lighting fixtures. The flow of electrons through the circuit completes the path and allows the light to illuminate.
Why does a light go out when you turn off the wall switch?
When you turn off the wall switch, it breaks the circuit that allows electricity to flow to the light bulb, causing the light to go out.
If a paper and pencil lead is connected to a light bulb circuit which one will turn on the light bulb?
The paper will not conduct electricity, so it will not light up the bulb. The pencil lead, on the other hand, can conduct electricity and complete the circuit, causing the light bulb to turn on.
Can an electricity surge turn on a light?
Yes, an electricity surge can potentially turn on a light, especially if the surge causes a sudden influx of electricity that trips the circuit and powers the light. However, this can also pose a risk to the lightbulb and the electrical system, potentially causing damage. It is advisable to use surge protectors to prevent surges from damaging electronic devices.
When you turn on a light switch in a room this open or close the circuit?
When you turn on a light switch in a room, it closes the circuit. This allows electricity to flow through the wiring to the light fixture, illuminating the bulb. Conversely, turning off the switch opens the circuit, stopping the flow of electricity and turning off the light.
