How would the bulb light if you tested copper sulfate and vinegar acetic acid for conductivity?
It will shine, but dimly.
Which chemical coated on a copper item will fuse the 3volt bulb of a torch?
H2so4
Why did your light bulb stay lit after you removed it from the copper sulfate solution?
My lightbulb stayed lit after I removed it all from the copper sulfate solution because electrodes were still working.
How can you prove copper is more conductive than brass?
Test it with the circuit and see which one lights up the bulb fastest.
How can you learn whether or not a material can conduct electricity?
You need a battery, a light bulb, and three pieces of copper wire, as well as the thing you want to test. Create a circuit by connecting each object to two others with the copper wire. Place one end of a copper wire on the positive side of the battery, the other end on the bottom of the light bulb. With the second wire, connect one end to the side of the metal part of the light bulb (where you see the ridges), and the other end to the object. With the last wire, connect one end to the object and the other end to the negative side of the light bulb. If the light bulb lights up, then the object is conducting electricity. If you have a large light bulb, it won't show as much light, or maybe no light at all, even if you have a conductive material. It is better to use a smaller light bulb for smaller batteries, so you can see the light.
How do you use the word dimmer in a sentence?
A 40 watt bulb is dimmer than a 100 watt bulb.
Do dimmer switches reduce bulb life?
Answer Actually dimmer switches extend the life of a light bulb, especially if you dim them often.
What is the name of the particle which flow through copper in order to make a light bulb light?
It is called metal,plastic or steel so copper is also magnetic which alows the copper to make the bulb be brighter and to light up thankk you for listening...
What is the type of lamp uses with dimmer switch?
You cannot use most fluorescent lights with a dimmer. Just about any incandescent bulb WILL work with a dimmer. Occasionally, when a halogen bulb burns out, it will destroy a dimmer switch but halogen bulbs are considered incandescent and other than that little problem they work well with a dimmer.
What is a dimmer?
A dimmer reduces the voltage to a light so that the current is reduced, which causes the bulb to have a reduced lumen output.
What happens to the brightness of the bulb when the second bulb is put into a series circuit?
it should become dimmer
What would be the maximum rating of the incandescent bulb for a dimmer switch?
Find the wattage rating on the dimmer controller. This is the maximum allowable wattage that the lamp in the fixture should be. Lamp wattage ratings under the rated dimmer wattage is fine but do not install a larger wattage lamp that is over the dimmer control's rating.
Why would a compact fluorescent bulb not work in a standard fixture that's not on a dimmer switch and in which an incandescent bulb does work?
If you have another CFB try it in the same position as the one that is not working. It sounds like the CF bulb is defective.
Why has your car radio display lights dimmed...a fuse issue...or a bulb issue?
Try adjusting the dimmer on the control for the dash light. If ti were a fuse, you would have no lights and that would never be a bulb issue. How's your alternator??
Can you use a copper wire to make a filament of an electric bulb?
No, copper wire cannot be used to make the filament of an electric bulb as copper wire has very low resistance. Therefore, the bulb will not glow if current is passed. It would also melt - the filament has to be white-hot to be any use!
If the right dimmer in the car is not working how do you fix it?
You just need to change the bulb!
Can you use a dimmer switch with A19 incandescent bulbs?
Be it a tungsten or LED A19 bulb, both are usable with a dimmer switch. However LED bulbs require special dimmers to work correctly. Normal dimmers, those used for regular tungsten (incandescent) bulbs, use the resistive load of the bulb to allow dimming. Most LED bulbs require other methods to dim the bulb. One stop gap fix to use a regular dimmer is to add a small wattage bulb to the LED bulb circuit. That adds a resistive load to fool the older dimmer. The best option for dimmable LEDs is to ensure you have a dimmer that specifically states it works with dimmable LEDs.
