What will happen when light strikes a opaque object?
The light is absorbed and changed to tiny amount of heat.
What type of electricity moves along a pathway to turn on a light?
When electric current flows through the tiny wire inside the light bulb, the electrical energy heats the wire so hot that it radiates light and heat. If the wire was in air, it would immediately burn up. But all the air has been removed from the light bulb, so the wire lasts for a while even though it's so hot.
What is a tiny bundle of light called?
A photon
Which energy forms when tiny particles are released by atoms light heat electrial or solar?
light
Why is the light bulb important?
So everyone could have light easily and won't have to carry around a candle. Which is a fire hazard! Light bulbs are important because there are actually thousands of tiny little bulbs on a computer screen that can project different colours and make a picture, in this case these words you are reading right now are actually little bulbs turned off because it's black. Plasma screens have like 1000000 (million) bulbs on it.
Meaning of filament?
It is a very tiny wire, which is in a light bulb.
What would happen if you ate a small light bulb?
It is possible that it could cause a blockage in the intestinal tract if it is big enough. If it is tiny, then it should pass normally on it's own.
What is a tiny type of light bulb can be found in many remote control devices and appliances?
LEDS
What will happen when light strikes a opaque object?
The light is absorbed and changed to tiny amount of heat.
What can light up a light bulb?
Well. A light bulb lights up because the atoms and electrons clash together which causes an electrical charge. And then it magically lights up the light bulb. By:?
How can you make a light bulb work without using a battery?
Using a remote control similar to those ones used to turn on electronic devices. The infrared rays can switch the light bulb on, since it has a small transistorised circuit that can actuate a tiny relay to put the light bulb in series with the electric circuit.
Why does a bulb blows but other bulbs are not affected?
I assume you mean in a miniature light Christmas tree light set. Assume a 60 bulb set designed for 120 volts. Each bulb has 120/60 or 2 volts across it when all bulbs are lit. But each bulb has a tiny insulated wire across the contacts inside the bulb. The insulation can handle small voltages, but not 120 volts, so when the filament breaks, the voltage on the dead bulb goes from 2 volts to 120, breaking the insulation and welding the wire across the leads. This newly welded wire then completes the circuit and the other bulbs instantly relight, now with 120/59 or 2.03 volts across each bulb, so they get slightly brighter.
How are the colors of the lights changed at a laser light show at the concert?
They are changed by a lens in the light machine, They have a white bulb and change the slides to pass through the tiny holes to make it seem as if it was a laser.
What structure breaks food into tiny pieces?
Teeth
What breaks down fat into tiny particles?
Bile.
What breaks rock up into tiny pices?
Ice
Is there a scientific explanation to the tiny dots flies make on hanging light bulbs?
Just spots of excrement that the bulb heats and causes to turn dark or burn.
