Is the light from an incandescent lamp monochromatic?
No, an incandescent bulb i.e. a bulb that emits light by the generation of heat, emits white light and is therefore not monochromatic. For a source to be monochromatic, the light emitted must be of a single wavelength.
Can LED Christmas light strings be connected to incandescent light strings?
Yes. A Christmas light string composed of LED lamps can be connected on an incandescent light string. The outlet at the end of a Christmas light string has (or is supposed to have) the source voltage.
What light is better a fluorescent light or incandescent light to grow a plant?
Definitely fluorescent. Incandescent lights are extremely inefficient and spend most of their energy producing heat rather than light. This is why an incandescent lightbulb gets so much hotter than a fluorescent one.
Why is an incadescent bulb a very inefficient light source?
An incandescent light bulb is very inefficient light source because of the amount of heat energy wasted when it is energized.
How is a light bulb better for growing plants then a fluorescent?
The light spectrum from an incandescent (a bulb) is closer to the spectrum of the sun than what comes from a fluorescent.
What is one benefit of using a fluorescent light source?
Consumes less energy that the equivalent incandescent light source.
Is the moon a fluorescent or incandescent source of light?
The moon is neither fluorescent nor incandescent. It merely reflects sunlight.
Is flourecent light a matter?
The light itself is the same as any light and is not matter.
Is the light from an incandescent lamp monochromatic?
No, an incandescent bulb i.e. a bulb that emits light by the generation of heat, emits white light and is therefore not monochromatic. For a source to be monochromatic, the light emitted must be of a single wavelength.
Compact fluorescent lights are better for both our wallet and the environment but do they produce better light than the traditional incandescent bulbs?
Yes, the compact fluorescent light produce more light as compared to the same wattage of incandescent light, it is scientifically proved.
Can LED Christmas light strings be connected to incandescent light strings?
Yes. A Christmas light string composed of LED lamps can be connected on an incandescent light string. The outlet at the end of a Christmas light string has (or is supposed to have) the source voltage.
What are five common types of light bulbs?
there are 98 different kinds of light bulbs. including colored light bulbs
Energy savings light bulbs flickering and do not dim on dimmer switch?
you can not put a normal dimmer on a florescent light. You need to install a dimmer made for flourecent lights and they are expensive about 50 dollar around here. If you want to dim it put a normal incandescent bulb in the fixture.
What light is better a fluorescent light or incandescent light to grow a plant?
Definitely fluorescent. Incandescent lights are extremely inefficient and spend most of their energy producing heat rather than light. This is why an incandescent lightbulb gets so much hotter than a fluorescent one.
Which is a better floor lamp - incandescent or fluorescent?
Incandescent floor lamps emit a lower ray of light, therefore you won't get as bright a light shine. A flourescnet light is much brighter. It really depends on where you will put the lamp.
What is incandescent light bulb?
An incandescent light bulb, incandescent lamp or incandescent light globe is an electric light which produces light with a wire filament heated to a high temperature by an electric current passing through it, until it glows.
Why is an incadescent bulb a very inefficient light source?
An incandescent light bulb is very inefficient light source because of the amount of heat energy wasted when it is energized.
