Some materials may not cause a bulb to glow because they have high resistance, which limits the current flowing through the circuit, resulting in insufficient power to light the bulb. However, these materials can still conduct a small amount of current, allowing the ammeter to register a reading. This indicates that while the material allows some flow of electricity, it doesn't provide enough energy to activate the bulb. In essence, the bulb requires a certain threshold of current to glow, which some materials do not meet despite showing a current flow on the ammeter.
What else can I help you with?
What is the connection of the reading of a ammeter and the brightness of the bulb?
If the current is stronger then the bulb will be brighter.The reading is much easier when you sit under the brighter bulb.
What will happen to the reading on the ammeter if one bulb blows out?
If one bulb in a series circuit blows out, the circuit becomes open, and the current stops flowing. As a result, the reading on the ammeter will drop to zero since there is no current passing through the circuit. In a parallel circuit, if one bulb blows out, the current may decrease slightly due to the change in total resistance, but the ammeter will still show a reading corresponding to the remaining bulbs in operation.
What components do you need to make a simple series light bulb?
You need a Battery, Light Bulb, Ammeter, Switch.
Where is the best place to put an ammeter in the circuit to measure the current going through the light bulb?
Since (by Kirchoff's current law) the current in a series circuit is the same at every point in the series circuit, it does not matter where you place the ammeter.
How do you know when electric current is flowing in a light bulb circuit?
You know if current is flowing in a bulb circuit because, if there is enough power (voltage times current), the bulb will illuminate. If there is current, but not enough power to illuminate the bulb, you will need to measure the current with an ammeter to see if there is any current.
What happens when a bulb ammeter battery and switch are put connected together?
the bulb will glow and ammeter will show the reading
What is the connection of the reading of a ammeter and the brightness of the bulb?
If the current is stronger then the bulb will be brighter.The reading is much easier when you sit under the brighter bulb.
How much current goes into the bulb if ammeter reading is 0.4?
The answer to this depends on where the ammeter is in the circuit. Assuming the ammeter is in series with the bulb and no other objects are attached, then the current is 0.4 Amps. Otherwise, your question is unanswerable without more information.

The rules of connecting voltmeter and ammeters in the circuit?
Connect ammeter in series and voltmeter in parallel to the circuit
Where would you put an ammeter in a circuit?
in a series circuit or it will not work. Put it after the bulb
What components do you need to make a simple series circuit to light a bulb?
You need a Battery, Light Bulb, Ammeter, Switch.
What components do you need to make a simple series light bulb?
You need a Battery, Light Bulb, Ammeter, Switch.
Symbols of the electric circuit?
there is a symbol of bulb,galvanometer,voltmeter,ammeter,gong,paperclip,switch,wire,solenoid,bulb and armature
How is adding a ammeter to a circuit different from adding a light bulb?
When you add a light bulb, you are adding a load, which performs a function - in this case, it converts electrical energy to light and heat energy. When you add an ammeter, most of the time you intend to measure the current in the circuit, which is the function of the ammeter. Thus the two electrical components differ in their function and does different things when added to a circuit.
What is the connection between the reading and the brightness of the bulb?
If the current is stronger then the bulb will be brighter.
Is the wet bulb thermometer reading always higher than a dry bulb reading?
No, the wet bulb is always lower. Evaporation from the wet bulb reduces its temperature.
