It uses less energy, to produce the same light, than the traditional light-bulbs.
Fluorescent lights use far less energy than any of the others listed.
Yes, lamp is to fluorescent
The fulform of CFL bulbs is compact fluorecent light
A capacitor in a fluorescent lamp helps to provide a stable voltage to the lamp's ballast, ensuring proper operation of the lamp. It also helps to improve the power factor of the lamp, making it more energy efficient.
Thomas Alva Edison invented fluorescent lamp in 1896
No, incandescent lamp dimmers are not compatible with fluorescent lamps. Fluorescent lamps require special dimming ballasts to control their light output. Attempting to use an incandescent lamp dimmer with a fluorescent lamp can cause damage to the lamp and dimmer.
A typical lamp would convert electrical energy into light energy. And lots of heat too.
The average price of a fluorescent desk lamp is about $30. You can buy a fluorescent lamp for as much as $55, or as little as $17. It depends on the brand size of bulbs used in the lamp.
In a fluorescent lamp, electrical energy is transformed into ultraviolet light energy when the electricity flows through the gas in the tube. This ultraviolet light then strikes the phosphor coating inside the tube, causing it to emit visible light. So, the energy transformation involves conversion from electrical energy to ultraviolet light energy and then to visible light energy.
A lamp converts electrical energy into light energy through the process of incandescence or by producing light through the excitation of gases or phosphors in the case of fluorescent or LED lamps.
In a fluorescent lamp, electrical energy is converted into light energy through a process known as fluorescence. When electricity passes through the lamp's gas-filled tube, it excites the mercury vapor within, causing it to emit ultraviolet light. This ultraviolet light then strikes the phosphor coating on the tube, which in turn emits visible light.
A compact fluorescent lamp (CFL), also called compact fluorescent light, energy-saving light, and compact fluorescent tube, is a fluorescent lamp designed to replace an incandescent lamp; some types fit into light fixtures formerly used for incandescent lamps. The lamps use a tube which is curved or folded to fit into the space of an incandescent bulb, and a compact electronic ballast in the base of the lamp.
