the actual filament itself in a light bulb has the most resistance,this is why it glows and produces light,the rest of the bulb is sufficiently engineered to carry the voltage and current applied to it without producing too much heat.

What is the part called that a light bulb fits into?
Socket
Change hhr tail light bulb?
What is the part number for the 2008 HHR tail light bulbs and backup light bulbs?
What part of the ohms scale of a meter are the most accurate resistance measurements made?
It really depends on what you are trying to get the resistance of. A piece of copper wire 30 feet long will only have a resistance of few ohms. A person can have a resistance of several million ohms. Making sure that your meter's leads are in good contact with whatever you are measuring is the best way to get an accurate reading.
How do you change 2008 Headlight zenon bulb?
No make or model was given in question so here is the general headlight bulb lamp replacement procedure: Purchase the correct replacement headlight bulb(s) first, before disassembling the vehicle. See sources and related links below for replacement bulb information and full light bulb part numbers list. Then consult your owner's manual for the headlight bulb lamp replacement procedure. As simple as it sounds, the owner's manual is the best place to start for bulb replacement instructions and illustrations. You may want to consider replacing both left and right at the same time in order to keep brightness and color equal (optional).
What happens when a part of a parallel circuit is disconnected?
current decreases and resistance increases
What is the function of a resistor in a light bulb?
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.
Is circuit part of a light bulb?
A light bulb can be part of a circuit.
Where is there a resister in a light bulb circuit?
In an old-fashioned light bulb, the part that emits light is a resistance. When current flows through it, it heats up so much that it glows - it emits light.Due to their lousy efficiency, these light bulbs should be discarded, in favor of fluorescent light bulbs or LED light bulbs.In an old-fashioned light bulb, the part that emits light is a resistance.

What is the resistor inside a light bulb?
In an 'old fashioned' incandescent light bulb, the only electrical part inside is the filament wire itself. When you put a meter across a cold bulb and measure the resistance, you're measuring the resistance of the filament. More modern and more efficient artificial light sources, like fluorescent tubes, LED lights and CFLs, have additional electronic components inside the structure of the bulb.

What part of speech is the word light bulb?
"light bulb" is a noun.
What do you mean by short circuit?
When electricity flows through a path of less resistance instead of the original path where maybe a light bulb is part of the original path.
Is dim light part of head bulb light?
no it is where the gray or black part at
The part of a light bulb that is a poor conductor so that the friction causes it to light up and glow?
That part of a light bulb that causes light to light up is called the filament, and it is typically made from tungsten.
What is a system that would be dangerous if resistance were not a part of a circuit?
Oh, VERY MANY! For example, a cord wrapped with rubber would be quite deadly. A light bulb that was incandescent would probably not produce light at all.
What resistance does a light bulb have?
250 V, 200 watts means that the current is (200W/250V) =0.8 amps (let us use DC now so that we don't have to deal with power factors and RMS / Peak voltages etc.). So, the resistance will be 250 / 0.8 = 312.5 ohms.
What is the part of a light bulb that gets hot and produces lights?
In an incandescent light bulb this is the filament. It is usually made of tungsten.
