Do that on your kitchen table, and right there

before your eyes, you have . . .

-- a series electrical circuit

-- electric current

-- a magnetic field (around the wire; you can't see it)

-- power dissipation

-- conversion of chemical energy into electrical energy

-- conversion of electrical energy into heat and light

-- electromagnetic radiation in the infrared and visible bands

What is a gls bulb mean?

GENERAL LIGHTING SERVICE (LAMP) Used to refer to what is more commonly called an "incandescent bulb" GLS stands for General Lighting Service (lamp/bulb). They are the standard light bulbs you are probably used to seeing around your home.


Why don't your fingers burn when you light a bulb with a battery and wire?

When lighting a bulb with a battery and wire, the electricity travels through the wire to the filament in the bulb, which creates heat and light. Since your fingers are not part of the electrical circuit, they do not come into direct contact with the electricity, so they do not get burned. It is important to be cautious and avoid touching the wire or components that might get hot during the process.


Can an 18 watt bulb be used in low voltage outdoor lighting?

No, an 18 watt bulb typically requires a higher voltage than what is used in low voltage outdoor lighting systems. Using a higher wattage bulb in a low voltage system can cause damage to the bulb and the lighting system. It is recommended to use bulbs specifically designed for low voltage outdoor lighting.


Do you have a diagram on 9volt battery and light bulb?

Draw a battery and light bulb. Draw a line from the smaller connector on the battery to the bottom of the light bulb, this is positive on both. Draw a line from the bigger connector on the battery to the side of the light bulb,'this is the negative of both. Looked all over and can't seem to find this one.


What is the controlled variable for a light bulb and battery?

The controlled variable for a light bulb and battery experiment would be the type of light bulb or battery used. Keeping these variables constant ensures that any changes in the experiment are due to the independent variable being tested.

What is the load side?

When discussing electricity it is common to break into two parts. There is the supply side which is where the power exists and the load side where the work gets done. In a lighting the supply side would be your house power, for example; and the load would be the bulb. In a flashlight the supply is the battery and the load is the bulb.


Bulb is good but does not light?

Check in different outlets - you may have a problem with the outlet. Check that you have electricity in your house, for example, by lighting another light bulb. If the bulb still doesn't turn on, then probably the bulb is NOT good.


What does jdr mean on a light bulb?

JDR typically refers to the shape of the light bulb, specifically a reflector bulb with a multifaceted surface. It is commonly used in track lighting, display lighting, and recessed lighting fixtures.


If you have brighter bulbs will the battery last longer or will it run down quickly?

That does not depend directly on the brightness of the bulb, it depends on the current drawn by the bulb (which depends on the efficiency of the bulb). For example an incandescent bulb will draw much more current than a much brighter CFL bulb or LED bulb. Therefor switching to an brighter LED bulb can make the battery last much longer while switching to a brighter incandescent bulb will make the battery run down quicker.


Is a flashlight an example of a parallel or series curcuit type?

A flashlight is an example of a series circuit; a battery in series with a switch in series with a bulb.


Why the bulb is not lighting when one wire or terminal is not connected?

When one wire or terminal is not connected to a light bulb, it is not possible for electricity to complete the circuit. When a circuit is not completed, the bulb will not light. An off switch, for example, breaks the circuit.


What is an example of a parallel curcuit?

When you have a light bulb in front of each other (all connected to wires to a battery)


Why does a energy efficient bulb not complete a circuit?

There is no element to heat to complete the circuit. Another example would be magnetic induction lighting.
