What else can I help you with?
Why is the power of a light bulb large?
Most light bulbs waste energy as heat. Even LEDs. Large light bulbs require more power.
What happens if you add 2 light bulbs to a simple circuit?
A: There is no such a thing as simple circuit if the bulbs are put in series the light will dim if put in parallel both bulbs will light up the same provided the source can sustain the power increase
What is the maximum voltage of incandescent light bulbs?
The maximum voltage of incandescent light bulbs is up to about three hundred volts. They can also go down as low as 1.5 volts. Incandescent light bulbs are the least efficient lighting system. More modern methods like flourescent lightbulbs are far more efficient.
Why can light bulbs be called heat bulbs?
Heat bulbs would be a more appropriate name because incandescent bulbs transform 90% of electricity received into heat and 10% into light. New Compact Fluorescent light bulbs use only 20% to 30% of the energy needed to power a standard bulb for the same wattage.
What are the benefits of using 130 volt light bulbs in comparison to standard voltage bulbs?
130 volt light bulbs have a longer lifespan and are more durable compared to standard voltage bulbs. They are less likely to burn out quickly and can withstand power fluctuations better.
Will a fluorescent light bulb burn brighter than an incandescent one?
Fluorescent light bulbs are typically more energy-efficient and produce more light for the same amount of power compared to incandescent bulbs. So, a fluorescent light bulb may appear brighter than an incandescent bulb with the same power rating.
Are Low energy light bulbs more expensive than conventional light bulbs?
no
Why are compact fluorescent light bulbs more efficient than incandescent light bulbs?
Compact fluorescent light bulbs are more efficient than incandescent light bulbs because they produce light by converting more electrical energy into visible light and less into heat. Incandescent light bulbs waste a lot of energy as heat, while compact fluorescent bulbs produce more light with less heat generation, resulting in higher efficiency and lower energy consumption.
Example of parallel circuit?
All the light bulbs in your house are in parallel across the power line.All the devices plugged into a power strip are in parallel.Everything in your car that gets power from the 12V battery is in parallel.etc.
How efficient are commercial light bulbs compared to industrial light bulbs?
Industrial light bulbs typically have larger wattage than commercial light bulbs. This is because commercial light bulbs are more commonly used in public as opposed to private homes.
What is it that normal light bulbs give off much more than fluorescent light bulbs?
Heat.
Can you power one or more automotive light bulbs with a 12V Alkaline lantern battery?
Yes you can but it will drain that battery quickly.
