Yes and no. The globe, if it will fit the socket, will light, but it will be a dull red and useless.
Electrical fittings for 240 volts usually wont allow this as they are different fittings.
The later types called EF lights will probably not work.
A light bulb connected between to wires, each having 300 volts to ground that are in phase, will not light, because there is no differential voltage available to do any work. If each wire has 300 volts to ground and are out of phase (600 volts between them) the light bulb will be lit, if it is rated at least for 600 volts, otherwise it will burn out.
Using the Electrical Power Law, which is:The current (measured in amps) equals the power (measured in watts) divided by the potential difference (measured in volts)So a light bulb designed to use 60 watts of power when supplied with 120 volts must draw 60 watts divided by 120 volts, which is a current of 0.5 amps.The same answer could be expressed in a few different ways:500 milliwatts500 mW"1/2 an amp" !
I = E/R = 120/25 = 4.8 amperes
In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each component is the same as the voltage supplied by the battery. This means that the voltage at the battery is equal to the voltage across each bulb connected in parallel. As a result, if the battery has a voltage of, for example, 12 volts, each bulb will also experience 12 volts across it, regardless of the number of bulbs in the circuit.
The formula you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.
If a light bulb is rated at 60 Watts, the voltage will depend on the specific type of bulb. For a typical incandescent bulb, the voltage would be around 120 volts. However, for an LED or CFL bulb, the voltage could be different, such as 120 volts or 240 volts.
Electricity in your house or anywhere else comes in volts. When you screw in a light bulb, you screw it in to an electrical socket that has a certain number of volts. The socket can have 3 volts like a flash light, 12 volts like a car, 120 volts like American houses, or 240 volts like some Latin American houses. The light bulb is designed to work with one of those voltages. If you put a 240 volt bulb in a 120 volt socket, it will glow extremely dim. If you put a 120 volt light bulb in a 240 volt socket, it will glow extremely bright, but it will burn out in a short period of time. So you should put a 120 volt bulb in a 120 volt socket. In the United States, you will not have that trouble. However, if you take your yacht to a foreign country, you might put your light bulb in the wrong socket.Another AnswerA lamp will only operate at its rated power when subject to its rated voltage. So, if you want your lamp to operate at its rated power, you must connect it to a supply which provides its rated voltage
A light bulb connected between to wires, each having 300 volts to ground that are in phase, will not light, because there is no differential voltage available to do any work. If each wire has 300 volts to ground and are out of phase (600 volts between them) the light bulb will be lit, if it is rated at least for 600 volts, otherwise it will burn out.
it all depends on what the bulb is rated for4 extra volts on a 120 volt bulb is negligable4 extra volts on a 1 volt bulb will definitely pop the element, but I don't think it would explodeAnswerDepends on the bulb voltage, but it shouldn't explode. If it's a 6volt bulb or lower, it would burn out quickly.If it's a 12volt bulb or higher, it may have a shorter life, but it would be brighter.
When the alternator on a vehicle is in the charging mode its output is close to 14.5 volts. If a bulb is rated at 12 volts, which is the voltage of a vehicle battery at rest, when the alternator comes on line at a higher voltage the life span of the bulb will be shortened.
Yes, a 103 volt source will light a 60 watt light bulb. The relationship of the bulb's wattage output at a lower voltage, as to the normal voltage that the bulb is rated to operate on, the light output will be lower.
Onions don't have volts.
Yes, in fact that is what a rough service bulb is rated at. The bulb used on a 120 volt system will have a reduced wattage output as to what it would be on 130 volts.
For a 5 C cell flashlight, a bulb typically rated for 6 volts is commonly used, as C cells are generally 1.5 volts each, adding up to 7.5 volts total. However, many flashlights are designed to operate efficiently with a 6-volt bulb to accommodate variations in battery performance and ensure optimal brightness. Always check the specifications of your specific flashlight model for the recommended bulb type and voltage.
V on a light bulb means volts. W means watts.
To calculate the amperage of a 25-watt bulb, you need to divide the wattage by the voltage at which the bulb operates. For example, if the bulb operates at 120 volts, you would divide 25 watts by 120 volts to get the amperage.
Each light bulb will receive the full 9 volts from the battery in a series circuit, so each bulb will be operating on 9 volts.
