How many light bulbs burn out every five minutes?

Light bulbs burned when it will became overheat and the its lifespan will end.

Not every bulb is exactly the same.

Usualy air getting into them.

yes it can, infrared light bulbs are used to product heat.

Yes, on an attritional basis, as the old ones burn out-

If light bulbs are burning out quickly the light fixture could be getting too much electricity due to faulty wiring. They could also burn out due to a loose wire or screwing the light bulb in too tight.

So you will buy more bulbs. Try using the new flourescent bulbs for lights that need to be on for long periods of a day.

It is usually the other way round, fluorescent bulbs give more light per watt of electrical input. An incandescent bulb will get hot enough to burn you and a fluorescent tube will just be warm.

If you use them correctly, fluorescent bulbs won't burn out (you need to leave them on for 8 hours the first time they are turned on). Also, they use about 1/3 the electricity as regular bulbs, which saves on the electric bill. Regular light bulbs are better if you are worried about the bulb breaking (incandescent light bulbs are non-toxic), or if you are prone to migraines.

If you used them simultaneously, probably around 1.46 million 60Watt bulbs.

So it reflects and doesn't burn the house down!!

If you use air instead of argon to fill a light bulb, the air will burn the light bulb.

The light bulbs in them burn out or there is a loose connections somewhere. Suggest you check.

it all depends on the voltage the light bulb can sustain.

Perhaps the greatest disadvantage is the issue of disposing of the fluorescent bulbs after they burn out. The fluorescent bulbs contain a small amount of mercury vapor so dumping them in a landfill will contaminate it with the mercury. Another disadvantage is the cost of the fluorescent bulbs compared to incandescent bulb (incandescent bulbs are cheaper because the materials to make them are cheaper). In most cases incandescent bulbs produce their full luminous power almost… Read More

You can burn 10 calories every 20 minutes

Yes because the more watts a light bulb means it lets out stronger light, but with more light it creates more heat, so the more watts in a light bulb = more heat and stronger light

If your 92 Toyota Corolla taillights are out, but the dash light and fuse work fine, the bulbs could have burn out. Replace bulbs on each side.

For every ten minutes you are doing jumping jacks, you burn roughly 100 calories.

No, compact fluorescent bulbs run much cooler that an incandescent bulb. A CF bulb can be unscrewed when the lamp is on whereas an incandescent will give you a bad burn if this is tried.

It's set up in watts. The higher the number of watts the brighter it will burn.

"They" do that by creating a vacuum inside the bulb (i.e., there's no oxygen in the bulb to burn).

Based on the average 150 pound person, you burn roughly 200 calories for every 30 minutes you swim.

Just a thought.... Light bulbs have a certain life span. If you put two light bulbs in at the same time and they get used equally they should burn out at approximately the same time. Maybe the correct answer is more complicated than that, but I certainly would hope not. I would put new bulbs in and see what happens. If the go out in a short while you have bigger problems. I have replace… Read More

Ordinary household light bulbs, or incandescent bulbs, are made with a tungsten filament that glows when electricity passes through it. The filaments need to be in a vacuum because if they are exposed to air they would oxidize, or rust, very quickly and would not provide light for a very long time. In other words they would burn out too fast.

A: It does not mater how it is connected a bulb will light up the same if the same power is available.

The power rating of light bulbs tells how much electric energy in watts the bulb consumes when burning. As an aside, a rule of thumb for estimating how much you are paying to burn a light bulb for a year, the number of watts equals the number of dollars. So if you burn a 40 watt bulb for a year it costs about $40. If only at night cut that in half and say it… Read More

Actually they do fit. Even though the bulbs are a different diameter, the pins are the same. You however do not want to do this. It is a lose-lose-lose option. You will use more electric, get less light and the bulbs will burn out faster. Pay the extra and use T 8 bulbs.

about one inch every 20 minutes

Answer: Did you check the light bulbs first. Normally bulbs will burn out quicker than a fuse. If the tail light bulbs are good (don't assume they "look" good), then you will need to take a look at a possible lighting relay issue.

As long as there is at least one bulb remaining it will continue to glow.

open your trunk to get access to your tail light, unscrew some plastic snap-on-screws to get to the panel that holds all your tail lights move the fabric uncling the panel CAREFULLY and change your burn bulbs

No, an inert gas like argon is used in light bulbs. Oxygen aids combustion and the filament would burn instantaneously as soon as the current was applied.

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.

If a light bulb is handled roughly before it was installed, the filament holder could have been weakened. Another reason that bulbs burn out before their time is that they are being submitted to a higher voltage than the bulb rated for.

Yes the 117V light bulbs will burn out almost immediately (unless you run them on a dimmer and never bring the voltage past half. The European bulbs have the slightly different threads from American bulbs. In Europe Edison threads 27mm, 14 mm and 10 mm. in the US 26 mm and 12 mm. Hope something fits.

ANSWER: The light socket is bad. They eventually will burn up if you keep replacing the bulbs like you are doing now. Go get the revised light socket from the dealership and you will be good. I have checked all bulbs and wiring in the rear, but the light keeps coming on rear lamp failure, is it a bad ground? if, so where will I look for it.

There are a few possibilities. You either have a short in your wiring, or you have been touching the bulbs when you install them.

Basically, LEDs are just tiny light bulbs that fit easily into an electrical circuit. But unlike ordinary incandescent bulbs, they don't have a filament that will burn out, and they don't get especially hot. They are illuminated solely by the movement of electrons in a semiconductor material, and they last just as long as a standard transistor.

Incandescent light bulbs need to have an inert gas or a vacuum to prevent the filament from being surrounded by air (with oxygen) which would enable the filament to catch fire and burn. Inert gases used include argon, krypton and nitrogen or some combination of them.

Just spots of excrement that the bulb heats and causes to turn dark or burn.

There are light bulbs in the back of the gauges they can burn out

sundials, and candles marked with minutes and hours that were made to burn down so far every 10 minutes

The circuit is broken. The filament gives light due to its resistence to the flow of electricity. The trick Edison had to discover was something that would conduct electricity BUT not easily BUT wouldn't burn out too soon. Tungsten seemed to be the answer. Since bulbs don't burn up, (immediately) they're incandescent. Incandescendent bulbs are still pretty inefficient, giving about 95% of their energy off as heat, not light. They're being replaced by light emitting… Read More

If you have access to a light bulb, wrap the bulb with some material (ex: a sock) and it will get hot enough to cause smoke and with some patience you'll be able to light your cigar. - You can burn one end the stove - Some light bulbs may work - You can light it from someone who has one already lit, where you put the ends of the cigarettes together and inhale the… Read More

Actually it may last longer !!! This is due to the fact that less heat is made with one bulb.

Light Bulb Filament Life Story Incandescent light bulbs have a filament made of tungsten. The filament is heated to a white-hot temperature by the electrical current passing through it. The filament is so hot that the tungsten slowly evaporates off the filament and plates the inside of the glass envelope (bulb). The evaporation of metal causes the filament to get thinner over time. Repeated heating and cooling from turning the lamp on and off causes… Read More

Light bulbs use special gas that is not flammable, so that the filament does not burn up as it would in normal atmospheric conditions. The agitation of electrons running through the wire causes heat, and thus the release of photons. Consequently, the air inside the bulb must heat up as well, as its electrons become agitated. The gas has a much higher burn point than normal air though, so it does not com-bust. I hope… Read More

All bulbs will dim over time and then eventually go out. See the Sources and Related Links section below to lookup light bulb info.

Light bulbs draw/use more electricity when you first turn them on, as compared with when they've been on for a while. In the case of incandescent bulbs, this extra current stresses the tungsten filaments, making it more likely that they will fail when you first switch them on. Also, these failures tend to be more noticeable because you usually hear a pop thanks to the additional current passing through when the filament breaks. And you… Read More
