What three objects make a light bulb glow?
A power source (of electricity), a means to transport this power (conductors/wires), and the light bulb itself
What is the thing in the middle of the light bulb called?
Electrical filament
What is the function of the metal casing and tip of the bulb?
metal casing and tip of the bulb are connected to the circuit which allows electricity to flow through the wires and light up the bulb
What are the parts of a light bulb called?
The globe is the outer glass shell. The shaped coil inside is the filament. Wires and the stem support the filament inside the bulb. There are gases within the light bulb to prevent it from burning out. And the base is to securely support the bulb.
Will a light bulb light if its metal tip rests on metal casing?
The metal tip of a light bulb has to make contact with the bottom of the lamp holder's middle center contact to operate.
What do the wires in the middle of a light bulb do?
The filament is made of tungten and these 'wires' (filament) conduct electricity.
What makes the light bulb get brighter?
by shorter wires or thiker wires
How do you make a battery light a light bulb?
Make a circuit with 2 wires a batery and a light bulb and touch wire to medle on light bulb
If there are more wires does the light get brighter?
No. Or at least not perceptually. The wires only supply electricity to the bulb - the bulb is what limits the current.
How does light turn on and off with no switch and light and no wires?
Perhaps by unscrewing the bulb light.
What do the support wires do on a light bulb?
As the name implies, support wires support the filament wire in the bulb, The filament, of course is the wire that glows white hot, giving out light

How to change a open circuit to a closed circuit?
u need a battery 2 wires and a light bulb. Step 1. Get the 2 wires and connect them to the battery step 2. connect the other side at the bottom of the light bulb the light bulb should light if it doesn't :(

Vw Jetta warning light of light bulb with exclamation mark in the middle of the bulb What does this mean?
Burned out exterior bulb
Does the middle bulb on the tail light work?
If there is a bulb, it should work.
How did Edison's light bulb work?
Electricity goes through the "electrical foot contact", heats up the wires (connected to the tungsten filament) therefore lighting the light bulb up. The filament is supported by wires. The glass mount holds up the two wires connected to the filament. That is how I think the light bulb works. Have a look.
