Is a light bulb a kind of lever?
No. A light bulb is a bulb that contains a filament that gets hot when electric current is passed through it.
Why are electric light bulbs hot to the touch?
This is the case in any bulb that heats a filament. The current flowing through the filament generates heat which radiates photons and produces the light you see.
Why does a fused bulb does not light up?
A fused bulb does not light up asno current passes through its filament. by j.gayathri
When did the bulb completed?
The electric light bulb was invented in 1879.
Who was the light bulb made by?
The incandescent electric light bulb was invented by Thomas A. Edison.
What is electrical energy converted into when electric current flows through the metal filament of a light bulb?
Electrical energy is converted into light and heat when electric current flows through the metal filament of a light bulb.
What gives out a light if an electric current flows through it?
A light bulb in an electric circuit when electricity reaches it.
Is a light bulb is a kind of lever?
No. A light bulb is a bulb that contains a filament that gets hot when electric current is passed through it.
When electric current flows through the metal filament of light bulb electric energy is converted to?
Heat and light.
Is a light bulb a kind of lever?
No. A light bulb is a bulb that contains a filament that gets hot when electric current is passed through it.
What happen to an electric current after it passes through each bulb?
There is a piece of filament in every light bulb, which has so much friction that when the electric current passes through it, heat energy is produced. This heat energy is then converted to light energy.
What is a similarity between electric heater and an electric bulb?
both use an electric current running through a material that somewhat conducts electricity to produce heat, and the light bulb also uses it to make light
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 is the filament in lights?
Filament is a thin part of incandescent bulb which is the source of electric light that electric current passes through and heated it until it produce light.
Why does a light bulb filament get hot when electric current flows through it?
That is the result of resistance in the wire. In energy terms, some of the energy in the electric current is converted into heat.
When electric current flows through a light bulb electric energy is formed to what?
It is converted into heat and light. Different types of bulb produce more light than others for the same power. Incandescent bulbs are the worst, fluorescent the best.
What is bulb and its proccess?
A light bulb is an electric light that uses the process of a filament wire that is heated to produce an electrical current. When the electrical current passing throught the light bulb it produces light.
