mostly light and heat (infrared)
What else can I help you with?
Does the place where the light bulb is affect the heat given off?
does the vessel where the light bulb is placed affect the heat
Is heat given off by a light bulb chemical energy?
No, the heat given off by a light bulb is not considered chemical energy. This heat is a byproduct of the conversion of electrical energy into light energy and thermal energy in the filament of the bulb.
What forms of energy are given off by a light bulb?
A light bulb gives off mainly light energy as well as heat energy. When electricity flows through the filament in the bulb, it gets hot and emits light.
Where does the energy given off by the light bulb come from?
From the electric current that powers it.
What name is given to reflected light?
The name given to reflected light is "reflection." This is when light waves bounce off a surface and change direction.
What is the regular light bulb called?
Assuming you mean the type that was invented by Thomas Edison, it is the Incandescent Bulb. Light is given off by a coiled Tungsten filament that is heated by an electric current flowing through it. The amount of light given off is rated in Lumens, but most generally the consumer relates it to "Wattage". The higher the wattage the more light given off.
What form of energy is given off by a flashlight?
A flashlight is given off light and heat energy once turn on.
Ultraviolet rays given off by the sun are what kind of wave?
Ultraviolet rays given off by the sun are a form of electromagnetic wave. They have shorter wavelengths and higher energy than visible light.
What happens to the energy wasted by the light bulb?
The wasted energy by a light bulb is primarily given off as heat. This heat is dispersed into the surrounding environment, contributing to the overall temperature of the room.
How much of the electrical energy used to light an incandescent bulb is converted into light energy?
Only about 10% of the electrical energy used to light an incandescent bulb is converted into light energy. The rest is mostly given off as heat.
What is the wire that gives off light in a light bulb?
In an incandescent light bulb the wire that gives off the light is called the Filament.
Most of the energy of an incandescent bulb is given off as?
Most of the energy of an incandescent bulb is given off as heat rather than light. Incandescent bulbs are not very energy efficient compared to other types of lighting, as they convert a large portion of electrical energy into heat instead of light.
