Who was the inventor of fluorescent lamps and alternating current?

Nicola Tesla invented AC for George Westinghouse. Don't know about the fluorescent lighting, but I prefer Tesla's alternating current and Thomas Edison's incandescent light bulb.


Would you expect to find direct or alternating current in the filament of a light bulb in your home the filament of a light bulb in a car the output of a battery charger?

Light bulb in the home - alternating current (A/C) Light bulb in a car - direct current (D/C) Output of a battery charger - direct current Input of a battery charger - usually alternating current


Does current direction matter when lighting a light bulb?

No. In fact, if the light bulb is powered by alternating current (AC), as almost allhousehold lights are, then the current is changingdirection 100 or 120 times asecond anyway.

How do you light up a light bulb with a battery?

You need: two pieces of wire, a battery, an electric light bulb to work on the same voltage as the battery and a bulb holder that fits the bulb.Connect one wire to the positive post of the battery and the other end of this wire to one of the terminals on the bulb holder.Connect the other wire to the negative post of the battery and the other end to the other terminal of the bulb holder. Screw the bulb into the holder and the bulb should light up.Another answerThere are many different types of light bulbs. Some, such as automobile lights and solar garden lights, were designed for use with batteries.Ordinary light bulbs have an electric wire that glows brightly when the right voltage is applied. These will work with either direct current from batteries or alternating current from a power line or generator, but the amount of voltage must be correct for the specific light bulb or, if the voltage is too low, it will not illuminate properly. If the voltage is too high the light bulb will be destroyed.Fluorescent light bulbs normally work from alternating current, but a direct current adapter called a DC inverter can be used to change battery power to alternating current.
