What else can I help you with?
Why doesn't the bulb light when the batteries are taken out?
because it then is not generating electricity.
Could batteries light a light bulb?
Yes, even a potato can light a light bulb. Yes. If the batteries match the voltage of the bulb, they can light it. Flashlights have bulbs and batteries that power them. If you mean a household light bulb, then you'd need many batteries in series (80 of the 1.5 volt batteries).
Can an apple power a light bulb?
No, an apple does not contain enough energy to power a light bulb. A light bulb requires electricity to produce light, which usually comes from a power source such as batteries, generators, or electrical outlets. The energy stored in an apple is not enough to produce the amount of electricity needed to power a light bulb.
What happens when a bulb is attached to a battery?
When a bulb is attached to a battery or a cell as scientists call it, the bulb glows. If you want a bulb to glow more and more brighter, it depends on how many batteries you attached to the bulb. If you attach a lot of batteries at the same time, the bulb might even explode or burn out. The wires that hold the interaction between a light bulb and the battery is electricity. The electricity flows through the wires and touches the bulb and that is how a light bulb glows.
What electricity will let battery and light bulb flow?
Direct current (DC) electricity is the type of electricity that will flow from a battery to power a light bulb since batteries provide DC power. Alternating current (AC) electricity, found in most wall outlets, typically can't directly power a light bulb from a battery without a converter or inverter.
How is energy transferred in a torch from the battery to the bulb - is it by electricity - is it by light - is it by sound - is it by thermal energy?
Energy is transferred in a torch from the battery to the bulb primarily by electricity. The battery provides an electrical current that flows through the circuit inside the torch, ultimately powering the bulb to produce light. Some energy may be lost as thermal energy due to resistance in the circuit, but the main transfer mechanism is through electricity.
Can a bulb light if electricity doesn't get to the bulb?
No, a light bulb will not light up if electricity does not reach it. Electricity is required to flow through the filament in the bulb to generate light. If there is no electrical current, the bulb will not illuminate.
Which was invented first the light bulb or electricity?
electricity because a light bulb needs electricity
Why did the flashlight light?
The flashlight lighted up because there is a source of electricity, typically provided by batteries, that powers the bulb to emit light when the switch is turned on.
Does a light still you electricity if there is no bulb?
No, a light fixture does not consume electricity if there is no bulb in it. The bulb is what generates light when electricity passes through it, so without a bulb, there is no circuit to complete and no electricity is being used.
What is the source of energy in a light bulb?
Electricity is the source of energy in a light bulb.
How many batteries does it take to light a big light bulb?
You dont need batteries to light a lightbulb!
