Bought a new light fixture and light bulbs It has 3 bulbs Why do they only stay on a minute and go out?

Check your kids playing with the light switch


How the light bulb works in old days?

the bulbs store a lot of energy inside itself before passing the filament and when they unscrewed it, it would stay on for quite a while


How long can a light bulb stay on?

It depends on the type of light bulb and its wattage. Typically, LED bulbs can last up to 25,000 hours or more, while incandescent bulbs last around 1,000 hours. It's recommended to turn off lights when not in use to prolong their lifespan.


Why do light bulbs stay lit?

Light bulbs are designed to produce light when electricity passes through the filament, causing it to heat up and emit photons. As long as there is a continuous flow of electricity, the filament will continue to glow and the light bulb will remain lit.


When a light bulb is broken in a parallel circuit what will the other light bulbs do?

They will continue to do what they were doing before the light bulb broke. If they were lit they will stay lit. If they were off they will stay off. This question could be improved by specifying that "the other light bulbs" are in that same circuit in which the broken light bulb was connected. Also, if the light bulb is broken in an inert atmosphere, it may well continue to burn.


Practical application of passing electricity though a gas?

The most practical application is fluorescence. By passing electricity through a gas, you "excite" the electrons in the atom. Atoms "prefer" to stay at lower levels of energy. In order for the atom to lower its energy, it gives out light in photons. Because of this phenomenon, we can make neon signs, fluorescent light bulbs and even find the chemical make up of different objects using spectroscopy. A typical person probably has seen a neon sign at a bar and nowadays we have stopped using incandescent light bulbs and moved to the more efficient CFLs. (CFLs are about 4 times more energy efficient than light bulbs.) Mercury is the most prominent element in CFL bulbs and when excited, the atoms give off photons of light that are red, green and blue. The mixing of these colors give us white light. Mercury also gives off photons in the ultraviolet spectrum, which is invisible. The light bulb has a special coating that takes the energy of the UV photon and gives off a different photon in the visible light spectrum. This is why CFLs seem to have a blue tint to them.


When a circuit of light bulbs is wired in such a way that if one light bulb burns out the rest stay lit it is called a circuit?

That would be a parallel circuit.


if you remove a light bulb from a serial circuit, are the rest of the light bulbs going to stay lighted?

Yes, because you are only removing that one lightbulb from the circuit.


Is it OK to let a fluorescent light bulb freeze?

As long as you keep condensation from getting into it, you should be fine. This answer is for old-style fluorescent bulbs. If you're talking about energy saver types, try to stay above 0F / -18C


Does the brigthness of a bulb stay the same in a parellel circuit no matter how many bulbs are there?

If all the bulbs are connected in parallel, and there is enough current, yes, the brightness will be the same. The voltage (which is the amount of energy in every charge), remains the same for all bulbs
