How do we decrease the brightness of a bulb?

If the bulb is of the incandescent variety, then reducing the current in the circuit will do this.


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.


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 !)

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.
