For a simple experiment all you would need would be a working light bulb and a thermometer. You could also use a yardstick and measure how much heat there is at different distances from the bulb.

What is the input or output of the light bulb?
Input to light bulb is Electricity and output is light.
Is a light bulb an output device?
It can be.
Why does energy saver give more light than electric bulb of same watt?
Both bulbs output the same amount of energy. The difference is in how much of that energy is output as heat vs the energy output as light. In a standard incandescent light bulb about 10% of the energy is output as light while the other 90% is output as heat. This makes the bulb only 10% efficient. For a florescent bulb the output of light is about 50% and the other 50% is output in heat. This means that a fluorescent bulb outputs five times as much light for the same wattage as a standard incandescent bulb, hence you can get the equivalent of 100 watts of light output for only 20 watts of electricity.
WILL 103 VOLTS LIGHT A 60 WATT LIGHT BULB?
Yes, a 103 volt source will light a 60 watt light bulb. The relationship of the bulb's wattage output at a lower voltage, as to the normal voltage that the bulb is rated to operate on, the light output will be lower.
What is the difference between a spotlight bulb and a flood light bulb?
The spotlight bulb has a different pattern cut into its lens that concentrates the light output into a tight central pattern. A floodlight lens pattern distributes the light output to a larger outside diameter there by spreading the light into a wide flood pattern. The spotlight has a higher light intensity output than the floodlight output.
What are the major materials in a light bulb?
Glass
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
What are the materials of a light bulb?
glass and argon gas .
What type of light bulbs are in the street lights you see lighting streets in the city and on freeways?
They are most likely a type of metal halide bulb. <<>> The above answer bulb has a bright white light output. If the light output has an orange look about it then the bulb is a high pressure sodium lamp.
In which circuit will the light bulb be the brightest?
the circuit which has the maximum power output
Materials in a nightlight?
there is a cover a light bulb base and a plug
How does the amount of magents and wire affect the brightness of a light bulb?
The brightness of a light bulb directly has no direct relationship with magnets and wire. The bulbs brightness is determined by the wattage of the bulb. The higher the wattage of the bulb the brighter the bulbs light output.
