What kind of energy does a lamp use?

Answer 1

light and heat are given off as a result of converting the input energy which I would guess is electrical energy or in the case of gas or oil it is chemical energy

Answer 2

Depending upon what kind of lamp is being used, the energy given off is light. Incandescent lamps also give off heat due to electricity passing through a coil of fine wire - the filament - while flourescent lamps create light by exciting inert gases inside a sealed tube. Of course, this light is that which falls between the wavelengths of infrared and ultraviolet, that is, the light that allows our eyes to see.

Answer 3

Non renewable if the gas comes from natural reserves.

Renewable if it comes from anaerobic digestion. Both of which are chemical energy

Answer 4

A lamp can use electrical energy or energy from burning gas or oil.

Answer 5

Electrical and heat energy. Some lamps ( halogen ) give of thermal energy

Answer 6

That really depends on the type of lamp. Two common options are electrical energy, and - if the lamp uses kerosene, or some similar fuel - the chemical energy from the fuel.

Answer 7

That depends on the lamp. Light bulbs usually use electrical energy. Lamps that have a wick will use chemical energy.

Answer 8

i would say i have electrical energy because it need electricity to power it on to fuel it
