What else can I help you with?
What if you were to add a resistor to a series circuit that include a light bulb?
A resistor slows the flow of electricity, and converts the electrical energy into heat. You don't WANT heat - you want LIGHT, so we generally do not put resistors in lighting circuits. If there is a resistor in the circuit, it will cause some of the energy that would normally be converted to light to be converted into heat instead, so the light bulb will glow less brightly. A variable resistor in such a circuit is sometimes called a "dimmer".
How do you set the sensitivity of a light dependent resistor?
using a variable resistor we can adjust the sensitivity of a light dependent resistor
Is Light dependent resistor an example of resistor?
yes, a variable resistor
What is Light dependence resistor?
A LDR or light dependant resistor is a resistor that works when light is not shining on it, so if there is light on it it will not resist a current, you can also get them to work the other way.
What is the relay next to the glow plug relay?
air charge resistor relay
Why do things glow in the dark?
they absorb light from before and then when it is dark they glow the absorbed light
Does the tube light glow with out starter and choke?
it will not glow
Does glow in the dark work with black light?
No, glow in the dark requires the absorption of light to emit a glow in darkness. Black lights emit ultraviolet (UV) light, which typically does not charge glow in the dark items like visible light does.
Can a tomato glow when connected to a light bulb?
No, a tomato cannot glow when connected to a light bulb. Tomatoes do not have the ability to produce light on their own, so they cannot glow like a light bulb.
What is the function of a resistor in a light bulb?
Most light bulbs don't have resistors; they are resistors. The filament introduces resistance as part of its action. The resistance is what makes it glow. Usually, if you use a resistor with a light bulb or other lighting device (neon tube, LED, etc), it is external. Its purpose is to reduce the voltage to match the requirements of the bulb. For instance, with a 50 ohm resistor, you could probably use a flashlight bulb with a 9 volt battery.
What is the resistor inside a light bulb called?
the wire in your light bulb is a resistor :)
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.
