The light bulb increases the temperature, and the higher the temperature, the faster evaporation occurs. The light bulb itself doesn't evaporate water.
If you're using the old incandescent light bulbs, they will give off a lot more heat, and evaporate more water than an energy-saving bulb.
It also depends on the distance between the bulb and the water, the surface area, mass of water, and time.

Why are water towers shaped like light bulbs?
to provide water flow througj gravity and pressure
How do light bulbs cause global warming?
In a incandescent light bulb almost 90% of the energy taken in is being wasted as heat. only 10% is being used as visible light. this means that alot of energy taken in from ex sun,vind and water are not being used as it should have been. Thats why the LED bulbs are so good because they dont give out as much wasted energy
Will salt fresh or tap water evaporate the quickest?
tap water will evaporate the fastest. I know this because i did the experiment for school.
Can you recycle xenon light bulbs?
Halogen light bulbs are a type of incandescent light bulbs and are filled with a halogen gas. The halogen gas gives the bulbs a longer life than traditional incandescent bulbs because it helps redeposit the evaporated tungsten back to the filament. Halogen light bulbs are not the same thing as compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFL bulbs), which have mercury inside and are often subject to state or local disposal regulations. Also, halogen light bulbs are not recyclable like CFL bulbs are.
Are there fish tank light bulbs that don't heat up if they are on for a long time?
I have goldfish and they need a decent source of light in order to keep their scales from fading and it rains almost every day where I live. I have an aquarium with two light bulbs built into the top of it, but if they are on all day while I'm at work, the water over-heats. Once i had to stay later than normal and some of my fish died it got so warm(ideal for tropical fish temperatures). Know of any light bulbs that do not heat up so mush and that are available for fish tanks? -Stargazer
Does temperature affect the time it takes to evaporate water?
yes
How does light affect the gradient of water potential of a plant leaf?
Transpiration regulates how much water moves through the plant. In hot dry air, more water will evaporate out of the stomates resulting in a higher transpiration rate. Light, or temperature, can therefore increase transpiration. Wind will evaporate more water from the leaf's boundary layer resulting in a higher transpiration rate. Humidity or moisture will lower transpiration because less water will evaporate out of the stomates.
Why you able to separate the salt from the salt water solution?
Dont get me wrong, but you seem to be asking how to separate salt from water. I think if you evaporate water, the salt cannot evaporate, and it stays behind. However, if the light is really hot, it will evaporate the salt along with the water. (Example: If you put salt and water in a dish and hold it on top of a lit candle, the light is hot enough to evaporate water, but not hot enough to evaporate salt.
Why does light affect water's temperature?
how dose water affect the light
What are causes for water inside of light bulbs?
condensation.
Which makes water evaporate faster water or light?
Temperature and pressure are important factors.
How long does a cup of water evaporate?
The answer is impossible; many factors affect this evaporation.
What are two factors that affect how fast water will evaporate?
Temperature and surface area
How does the temperature affect how juice and water evaporate?
At higher temperature evaporation is faster.
Does water evaporate faster in a dark glass or clear glass?
It depends on how much light is shining on the glass. If there is a lot, then the water in the dark glass will evaporate faster because the temperature will be higher. If there is no light, then it does not matter.
How does the size of a container affect the rate at which water evaporates?
the bigger the surface area the faster the water will evaporate
Does water in a lake evaporate?
if its hot it will slightly but it wont affect the lakes overall volume
