In typical light bulbs, or incandescent bulbs, the resistance to the current directed through the filament causes the filament to heat up, thus radiating light. The glass bulb around the filament is vacuum sealed to remove oxygen, which would rapidly oxidize and destroy the super heated, ultra thin filament. there are variations of this technology in which the bulb is not a vacuum, but is instead filled with different gasses surrounding the filament, which allows the filament to burn even hotter, creating more light. fluorescent bulbs work by creating a reaction between Mercury vapor and phosphors. electric current excites the mercury atoms, which then release ultraviolet light. The ultraviolet light causes the phosphors to fluoresce, which creates light in our visible spectrum.
in a light bulb, electrical energy is converted into light and heat energy. mainly heat (lightbulbs are relatively inefficient)
Electrical to heat and light
Eletric current
the second bulb become weak because there's not a lot of energy being transformed into bulb 2
Battery (chemical energy) goes to the wires (electrical energy) which goes to the light bulb (thermal and electromagnetic energy. In the bulb of a traditional flashlight, electric current energy is transformed to heat and then partially to light, when the temperature of the filament in the bulb is sufficient. In an LED type flashlight, little heat is produced and more of the electrical current energy is transformed into light.
Electrical energy is transformed into heat and light. More specifically, electrical energy from the household wiring is turned into thermal energy (heat) by the filament which in turn becomes luminous energy (light). Some energy is lost due to resistance in the conductors.
In an incandescent light bulb, electrical energy is transformed into thermal energy and then into light energy. When electricity flows through the filament of the bulb, it heats up and becomes white-hot, producing thermal energy. This thermal energy then causes the filament to glow and emit light energy.

In a light bulb, electrical energy is transformed into light energy and heat energy.
You don't. A light bulb transforms only a fraction of its energy into light, and most of it into heat. For an incandescent bulb about 3% is transformed into light, while for a compact fluorescent (low-energy light) about 15% is transformed into light.

Energy transformed by the means of energy transformation.
Electrical energy is transformed into heat and light. More specifically, electrical energy from the household wiring is turned into thermal energy (heat) by the filament which in turn becomes luminous energy (light). Some energy is lost due to resistance in the conductors.
The chemical energy stored in batteries gets transformed sets into electrical energy through the wires. This then gets transformed into light energy that you see.
In an incandescent light bulb, electrical energy is transformed into thermal energy and then into light energy. When electricity flows through the filament of the bulb, it heats up and becomes white-hot, producing thermal energy. This thermal energy then causes the filament to glow and emit light energy.
The rest is dissipated as heat.
