Why does the light of a bulb seem to be fading when sunlight is coming through window?
What is being observed in a situation where a light bulb seems less bright when the sun is shining through a window is based on the way the eye works. Let's take a moment and look at the issues. When a light bulb is on, we see the light and our brain "assigns" a "brightness" to the lamp. If it's a bright, sunny day and the lamp is near a window, all bets are off. The voltage to the lamp is the same, and the lamp is still emitting all the light (photomic energy) that it has been. But the "extra" light from the sun that streams through the window will "overload" the eye to a certain extent. The light will not seem as bright, and it is all because of the way the eye works. It has nothing to do with the lamp.

Why does your motorcycle circuit breaker pop when you hit the brake?
Check the wire that goes to your break light. Somewhere along the circuit it is grounded before the lamp and after the switch. Look on the circuit from the switch to the lamp. What is happening is, the circuit is good up to the time that you apply the break. This closes that brake light switch, When the switch closes it sees the dead short and not the lamp. The breaker popping is protecting the circuit wiring from burning up.
Why does the colors of an object look different under a fluorescent lamp from the way it looks under an incandescent lamp?
differences in the color of light will change the color's appearance as it is seen under fluorescent and incandescent. An incandescent lamp, like the sun, produces a spectrum of light in every color in a wide band, broad enough to cover the entire visible spectrum -- and extending past it to many colors that humans can't see. A fluorescent lamp produces a spectrum of light in a few narrower bands of color. That is why a fluorescent lamp is more energy efficient than a incandescent -- the fluorescent lamp doesn't waste energy producing photons that humans can't see. Some materials (such as white paper) reflect all visible colors equally. They look white in almost any kind of light. Other materials absorb some colors more strongly than other colors. They look colored in "white" incandescent light. If we have a material that reflects most colors equally, except for a narrow band of colors, and that band is in the "dark" part of of the fluorescent spectrum -- it will look the same color as white paper. If we have another material that reflects most colors equally, except for a narrow band of colors that is in one of the bands of colors produced by a flourescent lamp -- that material will look even more deeply colored in fluorescent light than in incandescent light.
What form of energy does an Infrared Lamp give out?
The answer is Radiant energy. Infrared light has properties of radiant energy in the form of either a wave or a particle, but not both at the same time, depending on how you look at it.

What is the importance of lamp shades?
First, lamp shades diffuse the light. Instead of looking at a bright bare lightbulb, you look at a much larger glowing shade that that bulb illuminates. The shade cuts out some of the light, but the light that you're left with is far more pleasant to look at.A lamp without a shade casts sharp-edged shadows. If your lamp has a shade, the shadows it casts tend to be soft edged. Again, this makes things look better.Second, in the old days when lamps that used open flames, a lamp shade would cut down on drafts that could make the flame flicker or even blow it out. A glass "lamp chimney" worked even better, but those were expensive compared to a paper and wire shade.

The woman on the coin is Susan B. Anthony also the coin is not silver. Look at the word trust again, if the "U" does actually appear to be a "V" the cause is a damaged or filled die that adds nothing to the $1.00 value of the coin.
