Which type of light bulb glows when a filament inside it gets hot?
An incandescent bulb.
What is the main reason fore a light bulb to stop working?
the main reason for a light bulb to break is, the light bulb heats the tungstin wire. When the tungstin wire gets heated to much it breaks, causing thi light bulb to stop working.
What happens to the electrical energy when it passes through a light bulb?
In a traditional light bulb, the electrical energy is converted to heat. The filament gets hot and emits the thermal energy as light. The electrical energy itself is not directly converted to light but goes through the thermal energy stage.There are many kinds of lights and more complicated processes which are not described in this brief answer.
Which is the most important invention the phonograph type writer or the light bulb?
This is a matter of opinion, but the light bulb gets my vote for increased safety and productivity.
Which sequence of energy transformations occurs after a battery-operated flashlight is turned on?
Chemical energy from the battery gets converted to electricity; in the light-bulb, assuming the old-fashioned incandescent light-bulbs, the electricity gets converted to heat, and the heat gets converted to light (part of it; a significant part gets converted to useless heat).Chemical energy from the battery gets converted to electricity; in the light-bulb, assuming the old-fashioned incandescent light-bulbs, the electricity gets converted to heat, and the heat gets converted to light (part of it; a significant part gets converted to useless heat).Chemical energy from the battery gets converted to electricity; in the light-bulb, assuming the old-fashioned incandescent light-bulbs, the electricity gets converted to heat, and the heat gets converted to light (part of it; a significant part gets converted to useless heat).Chemical energy from the battery gets converted to electricity; in the light-bulb, assuming the old-fashioned incandescent light-bulbs, the electricity gets converted to heat, and the heat gets converted to light (part of it; a significant part gets converted to useless heat).
What part of a light bulb gives off electricity?
The part of an incandescent light bulb that gets hot and produces the light is called the filament.
What is a filament Is it solved by using electricity terms?
A filament is part of a bulb.I will give you a full sentence. "The filament of a bulb is the part that gets hot and produces light"
Do you leave an iguana's light on at night?
It depends on how cold it gets at night in your home. If it gets below 62 degrees, then use one of the red bulb heat lights for nighttime in a lesser wattage.
Is a light bulb is a kind of lever?
No. A light bulb is a bulb that contains a filament that gets hot when electric current is passed through it.
Is a light bulb a kind of lever?
No. A light bulb is a bulb that contains a filament that gets hot when electric current is passed through it.
Why the filament in a bulb lights up?
because filaments are generally good conductors of heat , so the filament burns first and then gets heated up and then gives light.
Which type of light bulb glows when a filament inside it gets hot?
An incandescent bulb.
How does a change in the size of a current affect the light output of a bulb?
The bulb has resistance which then gets smal
Could an ordinary glass can serve as the glass bulb of a bulb?
Sure. But before you can use it to provide light, you need to find a way to take all the air out of it, and seal it so that no air gets back in. If air gets into a light bulb, the bulb immediately burns out.
Why doesn't a bulb light up when it is fused?
Either the bulb gets blown itself or the tungsten wire melts and opens the circuit, causing the light bulb to fuse.
