Electric power is put trough a metallic filament inside a bulb that is filled with an inert gas. the filament is surrounded by the inert gas rather then air to stop the metallic filament from oxidizing when it starts to glow as a result of the electricity being run through it. the glowing filament produces the light.
What else can I help you with?
Is an ordinary frosted incandescent bulb a luminous or an illuminated source?
An ordinary frosted incandescent bulb is a luminous source because it produces light through its own incandescent filament. It does not rely on external light sources to produce light.
Is light in an incandescent bulb matter?
Yes, light in an incandescent bulb is a form of electromagnetic radiation, not matter. The light is produced by the heating of a tungsten filament in the bulb, causing it to emit visible light.
What is the name for a regular light bulb?
incandescent
What is the equivalent of 750 lumens in incandescent light bulb?
Approximately, 750 lumens is equivalent to a 60-watt incandescent light bulb.
Does an incandescent bulb produce more heat than a fluorescent bulb?
Yes, because incandescent bulbs uses a resistive element which glows up to give out light. The force which opposes the flow of current through the filament wire causes more heat to be produced by the bulb.In the fluorescent bulb, noble gases are used and because these do not react to any force, less heat is produced. Though some amount of heat is produced by the end electrodes of the bulb.ANSWER: An incandescent bulb uses electricity to light the filament. Heat is the result. In a fluorescent light, argon and mercury are excited by an electrical charge and the result is light. The light is the same as a black light and if the bulb was not coated with phosphorus, white light would not be visible.
Is an ordinary frosted incandescent bulb a luminous or an illuminated source?
An ordinary frosted incandescent bulb is a luminous source because it produces light through its own incandescent filament. It does not rely on external light sources to produce light.
Is light in an incandescent bulb matter?
Yes, light in an incandescent bulb is a form of electromagnetic radiation, not matter. The light is produced by the heating of a tungsten filament in the bulb, causing it to emit visible light.
Is the burner an incandescent?
No, a burner is not considered incandescent. Incandescent refers to light produced by a hot object, like an incandescent light bulb, not a heat source like a burner.
What is filament coil?
it is the coiled wire that heats up and gives off light in a incandescent (ordinary) light bulb.
What is the name for a regular light bulb?
incandescent
What is a 'type a bulb'?
Type "A" is an incandescent, medium base bulb. In other words, an ordinary light bulb. There should be a maximum wattage listed next to type "A".
What is the filament in an incandescent light bulb made of?
The filament in an incandescent light bulb is typically made of tungsten.
Who developed the first incandescent electric bulb and inventors labatory?
Edison invented the light bulb and had a lab that produced many inventions.
What is incandescent light bulb?
An incandescent light bulb, incandescent lamp or incandescent light globe is an electric light which produces light with a wire filament heated to a high temperature by an electric current passing through it, until it glows.
What is the average lifespan of an incandescent light bulb?
The average lifespan of an incandescent light bulb is around 1,000 to 2,000 hours.
How is the lighting effect is produced in a light bulb?
That depends on the type of lightbulb. There are at least three different technologies: 1) incandescent light bulb, 2) fluorescent light bulbs, 3) LEDs.
How many lumens are produced by a 150W incandescent bulb?
A 150W incandescent bulb typically produces around 2600 lumens.
