You need: two pieces of wire, a battery, an electric light bulb to work on the same voltage as the battery and a bulb holder that fits the bulb.
Connect one wire to the positive post of the battery and the other end of this wire to one of the terminals on the bulb holder.
Connect the other wire to the negative post of the battery and the other end to the other terminal of the bulb holder. Screw the bulb into the holder and the bulb should light up.
Another answer
There are many different types of light bulbs. Some, such as automobile lights and solar garden lights, were designed for use with batteries.
Ordinary light bulbs have an electric wire that glows brightly when the right voltage is applied. These will work with either direct current from batteries or alternating current from a power line or generator, but the amount of voltage must be correct for the specific light bulb or, if the voltage is too low, it will not illuminate properly. If the voltage is too high the light bulb will be destroyed.
Fluorescent light bulbs normally work from alternating current, but a direct current adapter called a DC inverter can be used to change battery power to alternating current.

How do you make a light bulb light up using a 1.5 volt battery?
If it is a 1.5 volt bulb you can connect it through a series circuit directly to your battery. If the bulb is not made to run on 1.5 volts and needs another voltage, it may not light up!
How does a battery powered light work?
The battery chemically stores electricity so when you 'switch on' the light then electricity flows from the battery to the bulb. The bulb the heats up to glow white and the reflector shines the light out of the battery powered light
What happens to a bulb when you move it to the battery on a circuit?
It doesn't matter where the bulb is in respect to the battery, as long as the circuit is complete, the bulb will light up.
How does a simple circuit with a battery and a light bulb work?
In a simple circuit with a battery and a light bulb, the battery provides electrical energy that flows through the wires to the light bulb. The electrical energy causes the filament in the light bulb to heat up and emit light. This process continues as long as the circuit remains closed and the battery has power.
Why does the energy from a battery transfer into the light bulb and causes it 2 light up?
charge travels from one battery contact to another one through the bulb

What energy changes take place when a battery is connected to a bulb?
When a battery is connected to a bulb, chemical energy in the battery is converted into electrical energy, which flows through the circuit and into the bulb. The electrical energy is then converted into light and heat energy by the filament in the bulb, allowing the bulb to light up.
To light up a light bulb we need to connect to a?
To light a light bulb you need to connect to a source of electricity like a battery or an electrical outlet.
How do you make a light bulb light up using a d cell battery?
no it will bloww
How can you use a wire battery and a light bulb to test an item to see if it is a conductor of electricity?
I am going to assume you meant Three wires, Battery and Light Bulb. (punctuation and plurals are important) Hook the light to one post of the battery Hooked from the light to the item being tested (use the other light connection, not the one connected to the battery) connect the other end of the test item to the unused terminal on the battery. Light comes on means it conducts electricity No Light, it does not.
What battery last longest hooked up to light bulb?
energizer
Can a worn out battery light up a light bulb?
It may be able to. You can try disconnecting the battery for a while to let it "build up" some power, at which point the voltage may be sufficiently high to light up the bulb for a short period of time.
