Why does conductor heat up when current is passed through after a long time?

Heating up means increase in average speed of atoms oscillation. When current passes through the conductor electrons collide (impact) with atoms and transfer a part of their energy to them increasing their average speed. Error: "average" instead of "average"

How does an electric circuit with a battery lamp copper wire and switch work?

The battery provides the current and the energy; the lamp consumes the energy when the current goes through it; the copper wire conducts the current; and the switch lets you close or open the circuit (so that current passes, or doesn't pass, through).

What makes a light bulb light up?

When an incandescent light bulb (the normal round ones that Thomas Edison invented) is placed into a "hot" circuit, (meaning there is electricity flowing through it), the electricity passes through the filament (little metal wires) on the inside. As the electricity passes through it, the wires heat up and make a chemical reaction causing light to be emitted.
