Incandescent bulbs produce the most heat for a given amount of light; fluorescent lights produce much less heat, and LED produces the least.
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.
fluorescents are about 5x as efficientso a 12W will give about as much light
An incandescent light bulb is very inefficient light source because of the amount of heat energy wasted when it is energized.
The incandescent light bulb as we know it was invented by Thomas Edison. It was invented deliberately and after much trial and error by a very large number of people.
About 2 %.
Yes, absolutely. As long as the LED bulb and incandescent bulb have the same base they will both fit the socket. The LED bulb will also run much cooler than the original incandescent bulb.
The average lifetime of an incandescent bulb is around 2000 hours.

Only 1 :p :P :
Zero, nothing. It wasn't until 1880 that Edison patented the first commercially viable incandescent light bulb.
Long names are descriptive; they contain information. We could instead call an incandescent lightbulb a light, which is much shorter, but less informative.

A 15-watt fluorescent should produce about as much light as a 75-watt incandescent.
A light bulb is designed to take electrical energy and radiate it as electromagnetic energy.It would be nice of all of that energy came out in the form of light, but that has never been accomplished yet. An incandescent light bulb ... the original kind ... radiates much more heatenergy than light energy. In other words, an incandescent light bulb works much more efficientlyas a heater than it does as a source of light.
About the same as a 100 watt incandescent light bulb.
