What two forms of energy produced by a light bulb?
A light bulb produces light energy, which is the primary form of energy it emits. It also produces heat energy as a byproduct of its operation, although most of the energy is used to generate light.
What is the least efficient kind of light bulb?
It is the Incandescent light bulb. Most of the energy are lost as heat
Is it true that A light bulb converts electrical energy into both heat and light energy.?
Yes, it's true. When a light bulb is turned on, most of the electrical energy is converted into heat, but some of it is also converted into light energy. This is what allows the light bulb to produce light.

Can you identify the type of light bulb that is most energy-efficient for my home?
LED light bulbs are the most energy-efficient option for your home.
How do you know a light bulb transforms 100 percent of its electricity into light?
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.
Does a light bulb use more energy when in the dark?
For most light bulbs, they consume equal amounts of energy regardless of bright or dark environments. This is because a light bulb is simply lit up by a power source, and is unable to control brightness, producing the same amount of light. That is why most people say we should not waste energy by switching on a light bulb in the day.
Is compact fluorescent light the best energy saving bulb?
No, the most energy efficient bulbs are LED (Light Emitting Diode) light bulbs.
What causes the bulb to light in closed circuit?
Energy flowing through the filament. In a traditional incandescent bulb most of the energy is radiated as heat which is why they are viewed as inefficient.
Most of the energy of an incandescent bulb is given off as?
Most of the energy of an incandescent bulb is given off as heat rather than light. Incandescent bulbs are not very energy efficient compared to other types of lighting, as they convert a large portion of electrical energy into heat instead of light.
Is heat energy produced with the light energy in a torch?
Yes. The heat and light energy in a torch are separate. From the total energy input to the torch (chemical energy from batteries), Some is useful (the light energy) and some is wasted. (heat/thermal energy) The more efficient an appliance is ,the less energy out of the input energy is wasted. For example, an appliance may be 70% efficient. If it is supplied with 100J (joules) of energy, 70J will be useful and 30J will be wasted. Along with light energy, heat energy is also produced by a torch and is wasted. Heat energy is the most common form of wasted energy in appliances. Other appliances will waste energy in the form of heat, though it may not always be obvious.
What about an electron which is just passed through bulb?
It just continues on its way. However, most of the time an electron will more or less stay where it is, and just transfer its energy to the next electron - i.e., bump into the next electron, which continues passing the energy along.
