What happens to a light bulb when put in series with a inductor?

When you put a light bulb in series with a inductor, the inductive reactance of the inductor reduces the current available to the light bulb, making it less bright.
For this effect to be noticed, however, you need a very large inductor. To cut the current in a 60W bulb at 120VAC/60Hz by one half, for instance, you need an inductor around 0.6 henrys.

What happens if you take a device out of a series circuit?
the light bulb gives off more light
If a light bulb is missing in a series circuit will the bulb light?
If one light bulb in a series circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will go out, until the failed bulb is replaced and the series circuit is completed again.If one light bulb in a parallel circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will still work.
What is the Function of light bulb in an electric circuit?
The function of a light bulb in an electric circuit is that it turns electrical energy into light.
What happens to the brightness of the bulb when the second bulb is put into a series circuit?
it should become dimmer
What components do you need to make a simple series light bulb?
You need a Battery, Light Bulb, Ammeter, Switch.
What happens if you take a device out of a series circuit?
the light bulb gives off more light
What happens when you unscrew a light bulb in a series circuit?
If you unscrewed any bulb in the circuit it would turn all of the bulbs off.
What happens when a light bulb is broken in a series circuit?
In that case, the entire circuit won't work.
What happens if you unscrew a light bulb in a series circuit?
The circuit will have the flow of electricity interrupted.
If a light bulb is missing in a series circuit will the bulb light?
If one light bulb in a series circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will go out, until the failed bulb is replaced and the series circuit is completed again.If one light bulb in a parallel circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will still work.
What happens if one bulb in a series circuit burned out?
In a series circuit, all bulbs are necessary to complete the circuit. If one bulb goes out, the circuit is broken, so none of the bulbs would light up.
How a light bulb was invented?
The light bulb was invented by Thomas Edison which started out as a series of mistakes
What happens when a bulb is switched on?
when a light bulb is switched on it will blown..............
How is a Series circuit used everyday?
A light switch is in series with the light bulb it controls.
What is the Function of light bulb in an electric circuit?
The function of a light bulb in an electric circuit is that it turns electrical energy into light.
What happens to the brightness of the bulb when the second bulb is put into a series circuit?
it should become dimmer
What happens when a light bulb burns out?
When a light bulb burns out it no longer makes light. This is because there is no way to connect the flow of electricity.
