The intensity of light from most light sources is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source. So the intensity two meters from an incandescent lamp is one quarter of the intensity at one meter, and at three meters from the lamp the intensity is one ninth of the intensity at one meter. Laser light ideally has the same intensity at any distance.

Can LED Christmas light strings be connected to incandescent light strings?
Yes. A Christmas light string composed of LED lamps can be connected on an incandescent light string. The outlet at the end of a Christmas light string has (or is supposed to have) the source voltage.
What is the name for a regular light bulb?
incandescent
How is laser light different from a light in a light bulb?
Laser light is different from light in a light bulb because it is focused, coherent, and monochromatic. This means that laser light is concentrated, all the waves are in step with each other, and the light consists of a single color or wavelength. Conversely, light from a light bulb is diffuse, incoherent, and contains multiple wavelengths/colors.
Is an ordinary frosted incandescent bulb a luminous or an illuminated source?
An ordinary frosted incandescent bulb is a luminous source because it produces light through its own incandescent filament. It does not rely on external light sources to produce light.
Is the light from an incandescent lamp monochromatic?
No, an incandescent bulb i.e. a bulb that emits light by the generation of heat, emits white light and is therefore not monochromatic. For a source to be monochromatic, the light emitted must be of a single wavelength.
What makes up the lights of a set of traffic lights?
Incandescent light bulbs are used, in addition to LEDs. LEDs or laser emitted diodes, produce the different colours with different electricity molecules mixing with the oxygen in the air
What light sources emits only a continuous spectrum a. hydrogen gas b. mercury lamp c. sodium lamp d. incandescent lamp e. laser?
d. incandescent lamp
What are the manufacturing costs of fluorescent and incandescent light bulbs?
The costs of manufacturing costs of fluorescent and incandescent light bulbs are about the same aside from the slight different materials.
How is a laser light different from a regular light?
laser light has a constant wavelength whereas regular light is made up of many wavelengths
Can LED Christmas light strings be connected to incandescent light strings?
Yes. A Christmas light string composed of LED lamps can be connected on an incandescent light string. The outlet at the end of a Christmas light string has (or is supposed to have) the source voltage.
In what ways is laser light different from visible light?
Laser light is different from visible light in several ways. Laser light is monochromatic, meaning it consists of a single color or wavelength, while visible light contains a range of colors. Laser light is also coherent, meaning its waves are in sync and travel in a straight line, unlike visible light which scatters in different directions. Additionally, laser light is intense and focused, making it useful for various applications such as cutting, welding, and medical procedures.
What is the name for a regular light bulb?
incandescent
Can you name three artificial light source?

What is incandescent light bulb?
An incandescent light bulb, incandescent lamp or incandescent light globe is an electric light which produces light with a wire filament heated to a high temperature by an electric current passing through it, until it glows.
Is the burner an incandescent?
No, a burner is not considered incandescent. Incandescent refers to light produced by a hot object, like an incandescent light bulb, not a heat source like a burner.
Difference between laser and ordinary light?
Laser lights are spectrally pure, i.e. one wavelength, and they are coherent, i.e. all phota in phase. As a result, the beam of a laser light tends to stay as beam, and not diverge due to scattering.
How do incandescent light bulbs work and what makes them different from other types of light bulbs?
Incandescent light bulbs work by passing electricity through a filament, which heats up and produces light. They are different from other types of light bulbs because they rely on this heating process to produce light, whereas other types, like LED or fluorescent bulbs, use different mechanisms to generate light.
