Common old-fashioned light bulbs are of the incandescent type (including halogen) with a tungsten filament glowing at about 3000 degrees C emitting black-body radiation (light and heat). Tungsten is used because it has the highest melting-point of all metals.
The other type of bulb is fluorescent, of various types like tubes and CFLs
What else can I help you with?
What type of gas is in a tungsten-halogen light bulb?
Halogen gas is in a Tungsten-Halogen Light Bulb.
What element is in an incondescent light bulb filament?
The filament in an incandescent light bulb is typically made of tungsten. Tungsten is a metal with a high melting point that allows it to produce light and heat when an electric current passes through it.
What is tungsten bulb?
A tungsten bulb is a common lightbulb, the fillamint in a bulb is the small wire in the middle that's drawn across the two contacts. This wire provides an electrical resistance and heats up and this generates light. In a common lightbulb all the air must be taken out and replaced with an inert gas to stop the tungsten fillament burning away.
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 coating inside a regular incandescent light bulb?
The coating inside a regular incandescent light bulb is made of tungsten. This coating is what emits light when an electric current passes through it, heating up the tungsten filament to produce light.
What type of gas is in a tungsten-halogen light bulb?
Halogen gas is in a Tungsten-Halogen Light Bulb.
Light bulb filament?
What is Tungsten
What is always in light bulb filaments?
Tungsten is always in light bulb filaments :)
What element is essential in a light bulb?
In the old style filament lightbulbs it was tungsten (wolfram).
What is the filament in a light bulb made of?
The filament in a light bulb is typically made of tungsten.
What metal element is in a light bulb?
Tungsten
What is the filament in the light bulb called?
Tungsten.
What is the use for tungsten?
Light bulb filaments.
What is the coating on the inside of a incandesent light bulb?
The coating on the inside of an incandescent light bulb is typically made of tungsten or a tungsten compound. This coating helps to increase the lifespan of the bulb by preventing the tungsten filament from evaporating too quickly.
What element is in an incondescent light bulb filament?
The filament in an incandescent light bulb is typically made of tungsten. Tungsten is a metal with a high melting point that allows it to produce light and heat when an electric current passes through it.
What element makes light bulb filaments?
Tungsten is the element commonly used to make light bulb filaments. Tungsten has a high melting point, allowing the filament to heat up and emit light efficiently without burning out.
When current flows in the tungsten filament of a light bulb the bulb converts what?
Electrical energy to heat and light.
