How does the indecent light bulb look like?

The incandescent light bulb typically has a glass bulb that is clear or frosted, with a rounded shape. It contains a tungsten filament that glows when electricity passes through it, producing a warm, yellowish light. The base of the bulb is usually made of metal and designed to fit into standard light sockets. Overall, it has a classic and familiar appearance, often associated with traditional lighting.


Is Calcuim Metal Or Non-Metal?

calcium is a metalloid as it stands between metal and non metal as it doesn't have all the porperties of metal. calcium oxide is not an element so neither metal or non metal it is a compound


What is the difference from an LED light to a normal incandescnt or fluorescent bulb?

The main difference is how light is produced in each. In a LED, a device known as a light-emitting diode produces light when receiving a certain level of current. In an incandescent bulb, a thin piece of conductive metal glows brightly (incandesces) when subjected to a current in an oxygen free environment, such as a vacuum or near-vacuum (the absence of oxygen keeps the metal from burning and decomposing). Finally, a fluorescent bulb works by subjecting a special mixture of gases to an electric current. The current excites molecules of gas, which release light in the process.

What is a metal that glows when electricity is passed through it?

Phosphorus is a non-metal that glows when electricity is passed through it. It emits a light known as phosphorescence.


Is a meteoroid a broken fragment of an asteroid or other interplanetary material?

Yes, a meteoroid is a small rock or metal fragment that has broken off from a larger asteroid or other interplanetary material. When a meteoroid enters the Earth's atmosphere and burns up, it creates a streak of light known as a meteor.


Can you give an example with the word fragment in the sentence?

I had a fragment of wood mixed in with the potting soil.The police analyzed the fragment of metal to see if they could use it to identify the killer.


When a piece of metal heats up and glows it gives off light waves and what?

When a piece of metal heats up and glows, it emits light waves due to the increased kinetic energy of its atoms. This phenomenon is known as incandescence. The color of the light emitted depends on the temperature of the metal.


Is a meteoroid a star?

No. A meteroid is a small fragment of rock and/or metal orbiting the sun.


Why scientists use tungsten metal in manufacturing the filament of the light bulbs?

it glows and emits light.


Why is the lava of the volcanoes red?

Because it is so hot that it glows red just as molten metal does.


What is the definition of electric bulb?

A glass sphere containing a metal element that glows when electricity is applied.


Why tungsten glows?

tungsten is a poor conductor of electricity,tungsten glows when electrical energy from the energy source is flowing through the conductor of electricity and when electrical energy reach the metal filament(tungsten) the tungsten gets electrical energy and produce heat when it became white-hot and the tungsten glows the glows is called light.


What is it called when a lump of rock or metal burns before reaching the ground?

It's just called burning up. It does not have a special name.


Is An example of a physical contamination is a bone fragment?

A bone fragment can be a physical contamination. Some other physical contaminates are glass particles, wood splinters, stones, or metal fragments.


How do scientist use the electromagnet spectrum to determine the temperature of a star?

Anything with heat emits electromagnetic radiation, even if it is only in the infrared (IR) wavelengths. As matter gets hotter, it tends to change color. For example, if you've ever seen glowing metal at a steel mill or in a blacksmith shop (like on a movie) you notice hot metal glows red, hotter metal glows yellow, and even hotter metal glows white. If you apply this concept to stars, you can start to see that by measuring the color, you are also measuring the temperature - how? because a star at a certain temperature glows a certain color. Reds are the "cooler" stars (still very hot) and blues are the hottest stars - at least when we are talking visible spectrum.
