Best Answer

That would depend on the sort of lamp it is.

If it was a gas lamp it would be chemical energy

If it was an electric lamp it would be electrical energy

However you should understand that on Earth 99.9 % of the energy comes originally from the Sun.

The Sun's energy is the ultimate source of stored chemical energy and the ultimate source of the electrical energy we use.

What happens to the power output of the source if more lamps are connected in parallel?

Nothing will happen to the possible output power of the power source i.e it will not increase. Each power source has its maximum possible output power. Adding more lamps in parallel will result in a drop in the circuit's total resistance which causes the total current drawn by the lamps to increase. Your wires might be burnt as a result so be careful.


What energy do lamps let in?

I assume you mean the energy they use. It really depends on the type of lamps. Often, electrical energy is used. A candle, as well as a lamp with a wick, uses the chemical energy in whatever fuel it uses (for example, the wax, in the case of a candle).
