When the switch is turned it completes an electrical circuit. The circuit amperage flows through a high resistance filament in the bulb and it starts to glow. The bright glow from the filament and the reflector behind the bulb is what creates the flashlights beam.

What is the controlled variable for a light bulb and battery?
A light bulb and a battery simply being is not an experiment, so there is no variable at all.
Do you have a diagram on 9volt battery and light bulb?
Draw a battery and light bulb. Draw a line from the smaller connector on the battery to the bottom of the light bulb, this is positive on both. Draw a line from the bigger connector on the battery to the side of the light bulb,'this is the negative of both. Looked all over and can't seem to find this one.
How can you use a wire battery and a light bulb to test an item to see if it is a conductor of electricity?
I am going to assume you meant Three wires, Battery and Light Bulb. (punctuation and plurals are important) Hook the light to one post of the battery Hooked from the light to the item being tested (use the other light connection, not the one connected to the battery) connect the other end of the test item to the unused terminal on the battery. Light comes on means it conducts electricity No Light, it does not.
How long can a battery power a 44 watt light bulb?
To answer this question the amp hour rating of the battery is needed along with the voltage of the battery or bulb.
Does a 9 volt battery light a light bulb?
Yes, for about .1 second, then it will blow the lamp. A 9v battery will however light three 3.5v lamps.
What happens when you connect a single battery to a light bulb?
If the voltage is appropriate, the bulb will shine.
What happens to a bulb when you move it to the battery on a circuit?
It doesn't matter where the bulb is in respect to the battery, as long as the circuit is complete, the bulb will light up.
What happens when you connect the battery's negative side to the ground with a light bulb will it light up?
Nothing happens at all, unless there is a complete conducting path back to the battery's positive side. Once you have that, current will flow, and the light bulb may light up.
What is the conclusion for a battery powered light bulb?
what is a conclusion for a battery powered light bulb
What happens when a bulb is attached to a battery?
When a bulb is attached to a battery or a cell as scientists call it, the bulb glows. If you want a bulb to glow more and more brighter, it depends on how many batteries you attached to the bulb. If you attach a lot of batteries at the same time, the bulb might even explode or burn out. The wires that hold the interaction between a light bulb and the battery is electricity. The electricity flows through the wires and touches the bulb and that is how a light bulb glows.
What is the controlled variable for a light bulb and battery?
A light bulb and a battery simply being is not an experiment, so there is no variable at all.
What components do you need to make a simple series light bulb?
You need a Battery, Light Bulb, Ammeter, Switch.
Do you have a diagram on 9volt battery and light bulb?
Draw a battery and light bulb. Draw a line from the smaller connector on the battery to the bottom of the light bulb, this is positive on both. Draw a line from the bigger connector on the battery to the side of the light bulb,'this is the negative of both. Looked all over and can't seem to find this one.
Can a potato light a light bulb better than a battery?
i would say no because the battery has a lot of energy to pass to the light bulb and not a pataoe
If you connect a battery and a bulb in this way the bulb will not light?
yes
What happens to a bulb when you move it closer to a battery on a circuit?
The bulb will get brighter
How does a battery powered light work?
The battery chemically stores electricity so when you 'switch on' the light then electricity flows from the battery to the bulb. The bulb the heats up to glow white and the reflector shines the light out of the battery powered light
