Adding bulbs will not make the first bulb shine more brightly. Using Ohm's law, E = I x R , increasing the voltage will increase the current and the bulb will burn brighter. Of course, increasing the voltage will also burn out the bulb sooner. Also, if you add bulbs to a parallel circuit, the voltage will drop marginally, causing the first bulb to shine slightly more dimly! The voltage will not drop in a parallel circuit it remains the same. If this were true then every time you switched on a light in your house that was on the same circuit, you would see the other lights dim as the voltage dropped. I have never seen this phenomena happen as long as I have been in the trade. Since the input voltage is set to a specific value it was a hypothetical answer "Not more bulbs- only higher voltage or lower filament resistance will make the bulb shine brighter. I said 'drop marginally'. In a well specified system, the voltage drop will not be noticable but it does happen. Try switching on a kettle or big heater in the same circuit as a desk lamp, you will see the lamp dim slightly.

Do bulb make use of magnets to work?
No, bulbs do not make use of magnets to work. Light bulbs function by passing electricity through a filament, which then emits light and heat. Magnets are not involved in the process of generating light in bulbs.
Can you change a W5W sidelight bulb for an led bulb?
Yes, you can. There are 12v LED bulbs available in W5W fittings that are a direct replacement for most purposes. They are also known as 501 Capless. See http://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/501-w5w-led-bulbs-for-cars-and-vans/ for quite a few in different colours.
Are hyacinth bulbs perennial bulbs?
Hyacinth bulbs are perennial bulbs. Don't destroy the leaves because the hyacinth needs the leaves to refuel the bulb to make next year's flowers.
Does twist and lock bulb used to replace fluorescent?
Yes, twist and lock bulbs can be used to replace fluorescent bulbs. Make sure to check that the base type and size of the twist and lock bulb are compatible with the fixture. Additionally, ensure the wattage and light output are suitable for the specific application.
Can you use a dimmer switch with A19 incandescent bulbs?
Be it a tungsten or LED A19 bulb, both are usable with a dimmer switch. However LED bulbs require special dimmers to work correctly. Normal dimmers, those used for regular tungsten (incandescent) bulbs, use the resistive load of the bulb to allow dimming. Most LED bulbs require other methods to dim the bulb. One stop gap fix to use a regular dimmer is to add a small wattage bulb to the LED bulb circuit. That adds a resistive load to fool the older dimmer. The best option for dimmable LEDs is to ensure you have a dimmer that specifically states it works with dimmable LEDs.
Do plants from bulbs make seeds?
No, the bulb is the "Seed"
How can you make bulbs shine brighter?
Rub it with a peice of clothAnswerJust turn up the shine volume...you didn't know that?
How do you make a bulb shine brighter?
Wipe it with cloth I guess?
What kind of battery makes a bulb shine brighter?
Usually a higher voltage will make a light bulb shine brighter; but if the voltage is too high, this can also destroy the light bulb.
How would you make a bulb in a circuit shine with a fainter light?
You can make a bulb shine with a fainter light by reducing the voltage supplied to the circuit. This can be done by adding a resistor in series with the bulb to limit the current flowing through it, or by using a dimmer switch to adjust the voltage. Decreasing the power to the bulb will result in a dimmer light output.
How does cotton help make a light bulb?
Cotton is not used in light bulbs.

How does the brightness of the bulbs in the two circuits compare?
ANSWERwhen two bulb are connected in series their will not be any changeANSWERWhat other bulbs? This question doesn't make sense.Perhaps you are thinking of this: with two bulbs in series, each bulb only gets 1/2 of the energy (or voltage) that a battery makes available, so each bulb is much dimmer than just one bulb attached to the battery would be.
How does a three bulb circuit compare with the current when two bulbs are bypassed by a short circuit?
The current of one bulb (two bulbs shorted) would be about1 three times the current of three bulbs.1 I say "about" because resistance is a function of temperature, and running three times the current through one bulb will make that one bulb much hotter, increasing its resistance. It might also burn out the bulb.
Do bulb make use of magnets to work?
No, bulbs do not make use of magnets to work. Light bulbs function by passing electricity through a filament, which then emits light and heat. Magnets are not involved in the process of generating light in bulbs.
What makes a light bulb shine brighter?
Increasing the amount of electrical current flowing through the bulb's filament will make it shine brighter. Additionally, using a higher wattage bulb or a bulb with a higher lumen output will also produce a brighter light.
What did you do to make light bulbs glow dimmer?
To make light bulbs glow dimmer, I reduced the amount of electricity flowing to them by using a dimmer switch or a lower wattage bulb. This decrease in electricity causes the filament in the bulb to emit less light, resulting in a dimmer glow.
