Most light bulbs don't have resistors; they are resistors. The filament introduces resistance as part of its action. The resistance is what makes it glow. Usually, if you use a resistor with a light bulb or other lighting device (neon tube, LED, etc), it is external. Its purpose is to reduce the voltage to match the requirements of the bulb. For instance, with a 50 ohm resistor, you could probably use a flashlight bulb with a 9 volt battery.
What else can I help you with?
What is the resistor inside a light bulb called?
the wire in your light bulb is a resistor :)
Is a light bulb a conductor?
No, a light bulb is not a conductor. A light bulb is made of materials that act as insulators, such as glass and tungsten. The filament inside the light bulb serves as a resistor to generate light when electricity passes through it.
Is it true a light bulb acts as resistor in the flow of electrons?
While a light bulb does not technically act as a resistor, in practice it does impede the flow of electrons due to its resistance. As electrons pass through the filament of the light bulb, they encounter resistance, which causes them to release energy in the form of heat and light. This phenomenon is what allows the light bulb to produce light.
Do a light bulb acts as a resistor in the flow of electrons?
No, a light bulb does not act as a resistor in the flow of electrons. A light bulb converts electrical energy into light and heat through the resistance of its filament. Resistors are passive components specifically designed to control the flow of electric current in a circuit.
What device uses a resistor to transform electrical energy into light and heat?
A device that uses a resistor to transform electrical energy into light and heat is an incandescent light bulb. The resistor, also known as a filament, has high resistance, which causes it to heat up and emit light as a result of the electrical current passing through it.

What are 3 function examples of resistor?
A resistor is really anything that uses electricity along an electric circuit, for example a light bulb, a computer, a radio, etc.
What is the resistor in an incandescent light bulb called?
It is the filament.
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 is the function of the Bulbing?
the function of an bulb is it to light up
How do you built a very simple circuit?
wire a resistor across a battery. that is about as simple as it gets. the resistor could be an incandescent light bulb.
How do you use a light bulb as a resistor when charging a capacitor?
connect the light bulb to the positive wire like a inline fuse and then connect the wire to the battery it should just burn out the bulb
Is it correct to say that a bulb in a circuit is a resistor?
Yes it is. The filament in a standard incandescent bulb is a type of resistor. An incandescent light bulb contains tungsten which reduces electricity and converts electricity to heat and light. All incandescent bulbs are resistors, but only a fraction of resistors are bulbs. If you want to see if a bulb is a resistor, try adding another bulb in series without changing the voltage. Both bulbs will be very dim. Another way to test this is to get a multimeter and set the meter to the resistance setting. If you get any value other than zero, then it is functioning as a resistor.
