Why do light bulbs use very fine filaments?
Incandescent light bulbs use tungsten( a metal which can withstand very high temperatures) as filament.When heated to a very high temperature, the filament glows emitting light and heat. Heating effect in filaments is caused by the property of resistance in conductors. On reducing the cross- section area( thickness) of the filament, its resistance is increased and hence the filament glows with comparitively lesser electric current.
What is a filament that glows white hot in electric light bulbs?
Tungsten :)
What is the filament that glows white hot in electric light bulbs?
Usually a Tungsten alloy.
Why a fuse bulb never glows again?
Because it slept with another fuse bulb so the bulbs wife seperates the fuse bulb so thats why it never glows cuz its sad! :c
What is the strip of material that glows in a light bulb called?
The strip of material that glows inside a light bulb is called the filament. It is usually made of tungsten and emits light when an electric current passes through it, heating it to a high temperature, causing it to glow and produce visible light. The filament is a crucial component in incandescent light bulbs, which have been widely used for many years, although more energy-efficient lighting technologies, such as LED (Light Emitting Diode) bulbs, are becoming increasingly popular
Is it the male or female firefly that glows in the dark?
Both glow. but male fireflies would glow brighter as they have 2 'bulbs' while female fireflies only have 1
Where is there a resister in a light bulb circuit?
In an old-fashioned light bulb, the part that emits light is a resistance. When current flows through it, it heats up so much that it glows - it emits light.Due to their lousy efficiency, these light bulbs should be discarded, in favor of fluorescent light bulbs or LED light bulbs.In an old-fashioned light bulb, the part that emits light is a resistance.

A 60-watt 120 volt lamp requires morecurrrent than a 40 watt 120 volt lamp?
Yes. A 60W bulb has a higher resistance than the 40W buld. The extra resistance requires more current to light up the bulb. The fillament then glows brighter.

Usually a Tungsten alloy.
Why scientists use tungsten metal in manufacturing the filament of the light bulbs?
it glows and emits light.
How do you transform electrical energy to light energy?
You use a light bulb.Such light bulbs use different types of technology; for example, the old-fashioned (and quite inefficient) incandescent bulb heats a wire, which acts as an electrical resistance, to the point where it glows.
Which night is brighter with moon or no moon?
With the moon. The sun is actually bouncing light off of the moon to get to the earth, that's why the moon tends to look like it "glows". So with that light, the night would be brighter with the moon

Which glows more brighter a 100 w bulb or a 75 w bulb explain?
A 100 watt bulb will normally glow brighter than a 50 watt bulb as long as you are comparing similar style bulbs. You have to compare Incandescents to Incandescents, Fluorescent to Fluorescent, LED to LED, and so forth. You also have to make sure your bulbs are similar in light patterns since you can have general dispersion lighting, spot lighting, flood lighting, and so forth. So, once again as long as you are comparing like style bulbs, yes a 100 watt bulb is brighter than a 50 watt bulb.
What will happen in a series circuit if one bulb is added?
If one more light bulb is added to a series string of light bulbs while the voltage supplied across theends of the string remains constant, then the total resistance of the string increases, causing thecurrent in the string to decrease, and every bulb glows less brightly than it did before the new onewas added.
