Did Thomas Edison say there are 200 ways to not make a light bulb and 1 way to make a light bulb?
Thomas Edison is quoted as saying "I did not fail, I found 2000 ways how to not make a light bulb." He did finally succeed in finding the one way to make a light bulb.
What are positive affects that the light bulb has?
it light our ways especially when its dark
What difficulties did Thomas Edison have?
He "failed" over 200 times at creating the light bulb. He says he found over 200 ways not to make a light bulb.
How many feet will a 100 watt light bulb cast light?
You would have to specify how much light to get an answer. Light would scatter and be attenuated in the air. There are also different wavelengths in a typical 100 w bulb. Suggest you conduct an experiment by setting up a 100 watt bulb outside and then walking away until you can't see any light. Presuming you have a clear path to the bulb, it will be quite a ways.
What are two ways that an object gives of light?
A torch emits light from the bulb. A mirror gives off light by reflection.
How do you temporarily disable the seat belt light on a 2000 Chevrolet Cavalier because it's running the battery down?
couple of ways either earth out the switch at latch end or remove bulb in dash
How would you make a bulb in a circuit shine fainter light suggest 2 ways to do this?
lower the voltage by using a different power source or by placeing a variable resistor in series with the light bulb.
If a fluorescent light blinks is the light bulb bad or the ballast?
I have seen it both ways. Usually it is the bulb which is a few bucks. The ballast will cost more and could cost $15-$30 bucks depending on type. If you have another bulb that is working, swap it with the flicker light and see if the problem goes away. If the swapped bulb works, I always put the bad bulb in the fixture where the good bulb came from. If the bad bulb now works, you could have a seating problem with the bulb. If it flickers, replace it.
Why does an energy efficient light bulb use less CO2?
There are different ways to produce energy, but many of them involve burning some substance - for example, petroleum - that produces CO2.
How do you diffuse the light of your table lamp?
One of the best ways to diffuse the light of a lamp is to place a thin handkerchief or scarf over the top. Do not put the cloth directly on the bulb.
How many times did it take Benjamin Franklin to invent the light bulb?
Benjamin Franklin did not invent the light bulb (the incandescent light). It was invented by Thomas Alva Edison over 150 years later. Franklin did do early experimentation with electricity however.
How to Go About Bulb Replacement in a Safe Way?
Bulb replacement is something that almost everyone has to deal with at one time or another. Whether the light bulb replacement is for a lamp in the living room, a hallway light, or a porch light, the process must be done in a safe manner. There are several ways to make bulb replacement a safe and easy process.First, in the process of bulb replacement for a light that’s located on an average ceiling, a sturdy ladder is needed for the work. Furthermore, if the person who is performing the bulb replacement can enlist someone to hold the ladder, it makes the process even safer. A helper can also hand over the new light bulb when the time is right. The bulb replacer should turn off the light switch, carefully ascend the ladder, unscrew the bulb, replace it with a new one, and make his or her way down the ladder.Secondly, in the process of bulb replacement, a light bulb needs to be cool before it’s exchanged for a new one. For instance, if a person is reading for an hour and suddenly the light bulb of the reading lamp goes out, it needs time to cool before it’s replaced. A person’s fingers can be burned if he or she tries to replace the old bulb too soon. Once the bulb is cool, a person can turn off the lamp, unscrew the bulb, and replace it with a new one.Third, an important step in bulb replacement is considering the wattage of the light bulb. The light bulb wattage varies for different types of lights. For instance, the amount of wattage for an outside light bulb that illuminates a driveway is likely different from for a light bulb meant for a small reading lamp. It’s helpful to check the actual lighting device to see what wattage is recommended. Consequently, it’s useful to keep a gathering of light bulbs with different wattages.Bulb replacement for a bedside lamp is a quick, easy process. However, when it comes to bulb replacement for light fixtures on high ceilings, it’s best to contact a professional with a proper ladder to complete the task.
