What does it mean sink or source power?
Consider a battery for a moment. A battery can be a source or sink type of power source. A light bulb would be considered a source current. When a battery or other item is being charged is it considered a sinking source.
How would you make a bulb in a circuit shine with a fainter light?
If you add resistance to the circuit the bulb will shine with a fainter light ... the higher the resistance is the fainter it will shine
How do you make a light bulb light up using a 1.5 volt battery?
If it is a 1.5 volt bulb you can connect it through a series circuit directly to your battery. If the bulb is not made to run on 1.5 volts and needs another voltage, it may not light up!
What three objects make a light bulb glow?
A power source (of electricity), a means to transport this power (conductors/wires), and the light bulb itself
What does 40W mean on a light bulb?
It means that the power consumption of the bulb is 40 watts.
How long can a battery power a 44 watt light bulb?
To answer this question the amp hour rating of the battery is needed along with the voltage of the battery or bulb.
What is the smallest way to power a small light bulb?
A small battery.
What provides the electricity to light up the bulb?
a battery or a power box by your house.
What is on off switch?
Say it is a power circuit, a light bulb is bright from the battery, flowing through the wires and the light bulb. There is a switch controling the power that goes through, so if you switched the off switch off, the power will no longer be flowing through(the light bulb wouldn't be bright any longer).

Why do we need a complete circuit for the bulb to light?
Its a power source such as a battery - Wire from the Positive on the battery to one contact on the lamp and a wire from the Negative of the battery to the other contact on the bulb
Can a car battery light up a 60 watt regular light bulb with out using a power inverter?
Yes it it is a 12 volt DC light bulb. It will not operate a household 120 volt light bulb.
How much wind power to light a bulb?
You need a wind power generator to make the electric energy to hook your light to. Maybe charging a battery with the wind generator and running the light bulb off the battery will provide better service.
Can a worn out battery light up a light bulb?
It may be able to. You can try disconnecting the battery for a while to let it "build up" some power, at which point the voltage may be sufficiently high to light up the bulb for a short period of time.
What is the controlled variable for a light bulb and battery?
A light bulb and a battery simply being is not an experiment, so there is no variable at all.
Can i light a light bulb with a battery and a paper clip?
Yes, if your battery has the capacity to match the light bulbs requirements. A 1.5volt "AA" battery cannot supply enough power to light a 60watt bulb. A flashlight that uses a single battery will have a bulb small enough to be powered by a small battery and a paper-clip as a conductor. A low voltage LED may also be used. Touch one end of the battery to one terminal on the bulb, and connect the other end of the battery to the other terminal using the clip. (you may find it helpful to use tape to hold it all together)
What components do you need to make a simple series light bulb?
You need a Battery, Light Bulb, Ammeter, Switch.
