What part of a light bulb gives off electricity?
The part of an incandescent light bulb that gets hot and produces the light is called the filament.
What is the thin coil of wire inside a light bulb called?
If you are talking about an incandescent light bulb then its called a filament. It is thin so that it has a high level of resistance. Current going through the filament causes it to heat up and give off EM radiation in the spectrum of visible light.
How many lumens are in a 1000 watt incondescent light bulb?
A 1,000 watt is 15,000 lumens. A 100 watt bulb is 1,500 lumens.
What does the filament of a light bulb allows the light bulb to change electrical energy to?
The filament of a light bulb overs enough resistance to current flow, that the filament heats up so much that it will glow and produce visible light.
What is the wire inside a light bulb called?
filament
Which element is used in a light bulb filament?
Tungsten is an element. It is used in bulbs
What is in a light bulb filament?
Usually an element called tungsten.
What element is used in a light bulb as a filament?
Usually tungsten.
What air is in a light bulb?
the basically unreactive gas argon (element) is in a light bulb to prevent the tungsten (element) filament from coming into contact with oxygen (element) and getting oxygenated.
What element is essential in a light bulb?
In the old style filament lightbulbs it was tungsten (wolfram).
What type of light is a light bulb that uses a filament?
A light bulb that uses a filament is also known as an incandescent light bulb.

What is the difference between a filament of a bulb and an element of an electric heater?
The heater element is thicker wire, and has lower resistance. It still has enough resistance to glow red hot (producing heat) but does not glow white-hot and very brightly like a light bulb filament. Also, it lasts almost indeifnitely. whereas the light bulb filament has a finite life - it will "burn out" sooner or later.
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.
How many lumens are in a 1000 watt incondescent light bulb?
A 1,000 watt is 15,000 lumens. A 100 watt bulb is 1,500 lumens.
