The brightness decreases and light intensity gets reduced. So dim.
Also, it takes a bit less air conditioning to keep the room cool.
Also, it costs a bit less to operate that light bulb.
Also, the bulb may last longer before it fails.

If the amplitude of the waves coming from a light bulb decreased what will you expect to happen?
I would expect the light bulb to fail.
A light waves brightness depends on the?
amplitude of the light wave!
What does the amplitude of a light wave determine?
The amplitude of a light wave shows the light's brightness relative to waves of similar wavelength.
Where does the energy of a wave go when the amplitude of the wave decreases?
If the amplitude decreases the energy in the wave also decreases. The energy that was in the wave before the amplitude was decreased will have been absorbed into the surroundings, be they physical objects in the case of sound waves, or an electrical circuit or light absorbing material, to suggest a few different cases.
Is the color of light determied by the speed of the light waves?
the color of light is determined by the ____ of the light waves A. medium B.speed C.frequency D. amplitude

what is amplitude?
Amplitude refers to the amount by which something is displaced from the middle of its periodic motion. It can mean the maximum disturbance from the neutral position of a wave. It represents the intensity of a vibration, e.g. the loudness of a sound.
What happens to a vibration when amplitude is changed?
as the amplitude increases the waves get closer together like an accordion being squeezed...so the vibrations become faster (or higher pitched if we're talking about sound) if the amplitude is decreased the waves spread out and the vibration is slower and lower in pitch

If the amplitude decreases the energy in the wave also decreases. The energy that was in the wave before the amplitude was decreased will have been absorbed into the surroundings, be they physical objects in the case of sound waves, or an electrical circuit or light absorbing material, to suggest a few different cases.
What are two main categories for waves?
wavelength, amplitude or maybe you meant sound and light (waves?)
Is the color of light determied by the speed of the light waves?
the color of light is determined by the ____ of the light waves A. medium B.speed C.frequency D. amplitude
What happens if 2 light waves with the same amplitude interfere?
Their amplitude is not the important variable - their frequency is . If two light waves of the same frequency interact, then an interference pattern will be seen. This is the basis of the 'double slit' experiment designed to demonstrate that light may be considered to indeed be waves.
What type of waves have amplitude?
All waves have amplitude.
How do electromagnetic waves carry sound as electrical signals?
The electromagnetic wave is "modulated" (changed) to represent the signal. For example, in AM (amplitude modulation), the strength (amplitude) of the wave is increased or decreased, according to the signal.
When you turn down the volume what happens to the sound waves' amplitude?
Intensity of sound is dealt as volume in case of radio sets. Intensity is directly proportional to the square of amplitude. So as volume is turned down, intensity is reduced and so the amplitude is decreased.
