What else can I help you with?
What is the thickness of the filament in light bulbs?
the filament is neither too thick nor too light
What do the support wires do on a light bulb?
As the name implies, support wires support the filament wire in the bulb, The filament, of course is the wire that glows white hot, giving out light
How available are filament light bulbs?
I have not had any problem obtaining incandescent light bulbs.
What is the name thin wire inside a light bulb?
a filament
What type of light glow when the filament get hot?
incandescent lights
How many wires are normally connected to a double-filament light bulb?
5
What 2 parts of the light bulb need to be connected in order for it to light?
In order for a light bulb to light up, the filament and the base need to be connected. The filament is the part that emits light when electricity passes through it, and the base is where the electrical contacts are made to supply power to the filament.
You are using a bulb whose filament is broken will the bulb glow when connected to battery give reason?
No, the bulb will not glow when connected to a battery if the filament is broken. The filament is the part of the bulb that heats up and produces light when electricity passes through it. If the filament is broken, there is no path for the electricity to flow through and generate light.
How did Edison's light bulb work?
Electricity goes through the "electrical foot contact", heats up the wires (connected to the tungsten filament) therefore lighting the light bulb up. The filament is supported by wires. The glass mount holds up the two wires connected to the filament. That is how I think the light bulb works. Have a look.
How did Thomas Edison's light bulb work?
Electricity goes through the "electrical foot contact", heats up the wires (connected to the tungsten filament) therefore lighting the light bulb up. The filament is supported by wires. The glass mount holds up the two wires connected to the filament. That is how I think the light bulb works. Have a look.
Is the amount of current that flows in the wire of electric circuit the same as the current that flows in the filament of the light connected in that circuit?
yes
What is the purpose of the filament in a light bulb with filament?
The purpose of the filament in a light bulb is to produce light when electricity passes through it, causing it to heat up and emit light.
What the filament of bulb is broken then it is called?
If the filament of a bulb is broken, it is referred to as a "burnt out" or "blown" bulb. This means that the filament, which is the thin wire inside the bulb that produces light when electricity passes through it, is no longer connected and the bulb cannot function properly.
What is the filament in a light bulb made of?
The filament in a light bulb is typically made of tungsten.
What forms of energy does the electric light bulb made?
First let us understand the different parts that go to make up the light bulb shall we? The key component in a light bulb is the filament, this filament, ususually a thin piece of wire, is connected to two contact points. These points are then connected to the metal base of the bulb. When the bulb is attached to the light socket a circuit is then made. As the thin wire is part of the circuit it will have electicity passing through it when the power is switched on. The bulb glows because of the filament is thinner than that of the rest of the circuit. The filament gives off heat energy and begins to glow, this glowing we call light energy. You now have two forms of energy.
What makes up the filament of light bulbs?
Filament of light bulbs are made up of Tungsten.
What is the thickness of the filament in light bulbs?
the filament is neither too thick nor too light
