How the length and thickness of wires could affect the brightness of light bulbs?

Voltage loss. On a long run you will loose some voltage so it is sometimes necessary to increase the wire size to compensate for the voltage loss. This loss of voltage will cause a light to be dim as it is not receiving the correct voltage that is was designed to use.

How does the amount of magents and wire affect the brightness of a light bulb?
The brightness of a light bulb directly has no direct relationship with magnets and wire. The bulbs brightness is determined by the wattage of the bulb. The higher the wattage of the bulb the brighter the bulbs light output.
How would you compare the brightness of the bulbs as you increase the number of bulbs?
-- If the bulbs are in parallel, then the addition of a bulb has no effect on the brightness of those that were there before. -- If the bulbs are in series, then the addition of a bulb causes the brightness of those that were there before to decrease. (And I wasn't even there when you did the experiment !)
You are building a string of lights using several bulbs how is the brightness of the lights related to whether you connect the bulbs in series or in parallel?
Overall brightness (not individual bulbs' brightness) will increase when we connect them in parallel & it will decrease when we connect them in series.
How are light bulbs measured?
Brightness of a light bulb depends on the power, current, resistance and size of the filament. Lumens is the unit of measurement for the brightness of a bulb. A bulb has more brightness if there is more power and current. Greater the resistance, less is the brightness.
How do you convert a German 220 volt chandelier to USA 110 volt?
If you want mood lighting just connect it as is, the brightness of the bulbs will be half. If you want full brightness change the bulbs to 120 volt with bulbs of the same wattage as the 220 volt bulbs.
Does marijuana grow with energy saving light bulbs?
The amount of energy used by a lightbulb does not affect a plants growth, only the brightness and spectrum of the light produced.
When three bulbs connected to a battery in parallel circuit what will happen to the brightness of the bulbs?
The brightness of three bulb would be mare than one
How does the brightness of each bulb in a parallel circuit compare to the brightness of the bulb in a series circuit?
u see the light bulbs on a series circuit's brightness evolves and the brightness on a parallel's circuit dont
When loads are in series the brightness of the bulbs will?
at like 1minute after each other.
The current is 0.4 A and the bulb in the circuit is bright. What will happen to the brightness of the bulb if you put another bulb in series in the circuit?
ANSWER: The brightness of both bulbs will decrease. If the bulbs are identical the current will decrease to 0.2 Amps. This is a simple series resistive circuit, the more bulbs you add in series both the amperage and bulb brightness will continue to go down.
What causes one headlight to be brighter than the other?
it is possible that you have two different rated bulbs, check to see if they are the same bulbs. it may be that one of the bulbs is incorrectly fitted which would give a different beam pattern and brightness. check the earth for the two bulbs, if one is poor and gives a high resistance it will affect the brightness, or it may be that the dull bulb has come to the end of its useful life and requires replacement. hope this helps, robb Different intensity bulb or poor ground.
Is instrument brightness a fuse or bulb?
Instrument brightness is controlled by a rheostat that feeds the instrument illumination bulbs, that circuit is also protected by a fuse.
