what is the colour temperature and wavelength of incandescent lamp?

∙ 11y ago
An incandescent lamp's light has a color temperature between '2700 to 3300 K".
Such a temperature approximates an ideal black body radiator, and it could have an effect of "warm". If a neodymium coating is used, the color ranges from yellow to red. After a period of use, the color turns into white and then to blue. Blue and black colors are at the end of the visible wavelength.

Where did Edison invents a practical incandescent lamp?
1859
What is another word for light bulb?
Incandescent lamp
What part of the lamp converts electricity to light?
For a filament-type (incandescent) lamp, it's the filament.
Who was the inventor of the incandescent light bulb?
Thomas Alva Edison invented the first practical incandescent lamp in 1879. Many other scientists created the incandescent lights before Edison did, but those lights were not practically useful.
Is krypton electrical insulator?
Incandescent light bulb"Light bulb" redirects here. For other types including compact fluorescent lamps, see Lamp (electrical component).An incandescent light bulbThe incandescent light bulb, incandescent lamp or incandescent light globe makes light by heating a metal filament wire to a high temperature until it glows. The hot filament is protected from air by a glass bulb that is filled with inert gas or evacuated. In a halogen lamp, a chemical process that returns metal to the filament prevents its evaporation. The light bulb is supplied with electrical current by feed-through terminals or wires embedded in the glass. Most bulbs are used in a socket (a housing giving mechanical support to the bulb, keeping its terminals in contact with the supply current terminals).
What can an incandescent test lamp is used to check?
An incandescent lamp can be used to check continuity of a circuit.
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.
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.
What light sources emits only a continuous spectrum a. hydrogen gas b. mercury lamp c. sodium lamp d. incandescent lamp e. laser?
d. incandescent lamp
Is CO2 emitted by incandescent bulb?
No, carbon dioxide is not emitted by an incandescent lamp.
Why is an incandescent lamp cool to the touch when it gives off heat?
An incandescent lamp is not cool to the touch unless it is an extremely low wattage. Heat given off by incandescent lamps is one of the drawbacks of the lamp. Total overall efficiency is reduced by the wasted heat.
What is consisted?
Colour consistency is the variation of the dominant or contrasting wavelength in identical lamp samples. It is also what allows a human to see the same colour in a variety of situations.Colour constancy is the brains ability to assign a constant colour to a surface. For example Granny Smith apples will have a constant green colour.
Why was the incandescent lamp not used in homes?
The incandescent lamps are very frequently used in all the buildings !
Who was rewarded for his patent incandescent lamp?
Alexander Lodygin
