because it doesn't let the light glow
It might be the energy saving bulbs.
Incandescent light bulbs do not emit much Ultraviolet light. Strip lights and compact fluorescent low energy light bulbs do. The whiteners added to white fabrics react to UV light and glow due to fluorescence.
yes also in light bulbs and lasers!
When you are wiring two light bulbs in SERIES, you split the voltage to each light bulb in HALF, meaning that it will only glow half the brightness per bulb, but it will only draw the current of one bulb, meaning if the bulbs were connected to a battery, it would last longer to connect them together in series, rather than parallel.
All of the bulbs will become dimmer as more bulbs are added.
When light bulbs are connected in series circuits, they will get dimmer whenever a bulb is added. This is because the current is shared between all of the bulbs equally.AnswerLamps only operate at their rated power when subjected to their rated voltage. If you connect lamps in series, each lamp will be subject to a lower voltage, so they will not operate at their rated power and, so, will be dimmer. The more powerful lamps will actually glow less than the less-powerful lamps because their resistance is lower and the voltage drop across them will also be lower than the voltage drop across the less powerful lamps.
this depends on 1. whether the extra bulbs are being connected in parallel circuit or in series with each other, and 2. the power rating of the battery. supposing the battery power rating is greater than all the individual bulbs put together, the bulbs will glow the same maximum intensity if they are connected in parallel, and will become dimmer if connected end to end i.e in series.
Either the filament or a gas inside is heated. Once it gets hot enough, it dissipates some of the energy as heat and light.
It could not travel at the speed of light. But hypothetically, it would glow.
All the three would glow at the same instant.
The wiring inside the light bulb is very thin (the filament) and glows when heated. The current through the thin wire heats up the filament wire so that it will glow. See the related link 'How Light Bulbs Work'.
