Why was argon gas chosen for a light bulb?
Argon is often used when an inert atmosphere is needed. It is used in this way in incandescent light bulbs to stop oxygen from corroding the filament. Argon is used in fluorescent tubes and low-energy light bulbs. A low-energy light bulb often contains argon gas and mercury. When it is switched on an electric discharge passes through the gas, generating UV light. The coating on the inside surface of the bulb is activated by the UV light and it glows brightly.
Why can be used xenon flash tube for ruby laser?
because The xenon flash tube comprises a hermetically sealed glass tube, which is filled with a noble gas, usually xenon, and electrodes to carry electrical current to the gas. Additionally, a high voltage power source is necessary to energize the gas. A charged capacitor is usually used for this purpose so as to allow very speedy delivery of very high electrical current when the lamp is triggered
What is the gas that does not react at all and it is used in light bulbs so the metal in the light bulb can get very hot without burning?
Argon
In a bulb noble gas argon is used . why is argon is used instead of air in the light bulb?
It won't burn the filament.
What element produces a red light in advertisement signs?
The gas used to produce red light when an electric current is passed through it is neon.
What gas that is used to make flash light?
hydrogen
Helium is the gas used in photographic lamps?
Not helium. But xenon is used in photographic lamps
What are characteristics and uses of krypton?
Krypton is a noble gas and it is odorless, colorless and tasteless. Looking at a jar of krypton would be like looking at a jar of air. It is used in lasers,bright electrical lamps,and bright light such as photographic flash.
What is the gas used to make flash light?
I think for creating flashlight The gas used in fluorescent lamps is argon. Neon is used for red lamps.
Purpose of flash tubes on gas cooker?
On a gas stove or oven the flash tubes are the means of connecting the pilot light. The flash tubes carry the flame from the pilot light to the individual burners.
Which gas is used in flash light?
Many regular flashlights use argon in the light bulbs. For camera flashes, many use xenon.
Can water in the gas tank cause check engine light to flash?
Yes, water can cause a misfire, which will cause the check engine light to flash.
What element is a noble gas used in light bulbs and photographic pictures?
helium He, neon Ne, argon Ar, krypton Kr, xenon Xe. I think this is all of the ones used for lighting if not please add any others.
What are uses of krypton?
Krypton light has a large number of spectral lines, and krypton's high light output in plasmas allows it to play an important role in many high-powered gas lasers.Krypton is used commercially as a low-pressure filling gas for fluorescent lights. It is also used in certain photographic flash lamps for high-speed photography. Radioactive krypton was used to estimate Soviet nuclear production.The gas is a product of all nuclear reactors, so the Russian share was found by subtracting the amount that comes from Western reactors from the total in the air.A colorless, odorless, tasteless noble gas, krypton occurs in trace amounts in the atmosphere. It is isolated by fractionally distilling liquified air, and is often used with other rare gases in fluorescent lamps. Like most of the other rare gases, the main commercial use of Krypton is in a variety of light bulb applications including fluorescent, incandescent, gas discharge, gas glow, flash tube and laser lamps. Its bright and nearly white light output in high temperature plasma makes it valuable for photography and "neon" sign applications.Krypton is used as a gas for certain flourescent lighting such as photography flash bulbs and as a low level radiation source.
What was used before the electric light?
Gas light was used before the electric light and before gas light, candles were used.
Which gas used in light bulb?
The gas in a light bulb is Argon
What gas would have been used to fill the flash bulbs?
Oxygen.
