A lava lamp works because of the interaction between heat and wax. The heat from the lamp causes the wax to rise to the top, and as it cools, it falls back down. This cyclical motion creates the colorful bubbles you see in a lava lamp.
Typically, if the ballast on a fluorescent light blows, the lamp will not work. The ballast regulates the electrical current to the lamp, so if it is not functioning properly, the lamp will not receive the correct power to light up.
Mostly heat, but that heat causes a filament to glow, which makes light.
A person who lives in a lamp is typically referred to as a "lamp dweller" or "lamp resident."
You can convert a clamp on desk lamp to a lamp with a regular base by purchasing a tabletop bracket for the lamp. This bracket can act as a base for the lamp.
To create a lava lamp using alka seltzer, water, and vegetable oil, you would mix water with food coloring and vegetable oil in a clear container. Then, drop pieces of alka seltzer tablets into the mixture. The reaction between the alka seltzer and water will create gas bubbles that rise through the oil, creating the lava lamp effect.
Lava lamp bubbles flow up and down due to a combination of heat from the lamp's bulb causing the liquid to expand and become less dense, causing it to rise, and then cooling as it moves away from the heat source, becoming more dense and sinking back down. This continuous cycle creates the mesmerizing motion of the bubbles in a lava lamp.

When an Alka-Seltzer tablet is added to a lava lamp, it reacts with the water and releases gas bubbles. These bubbles rise through the oil in the lamp, carrying blobs of colored wax with them. As the wax cools and descends, it creates the mesmerizing lava lamp effect.
The variables in a lava lamp include the type and amount of wax and liquid, the temperature of the lamp, and the presence of air bubbles. These variables interact to create the mesmerizing motion and flow of the wax inside the lamp.
If you put the entire Alka-Seltzer tablet into a homemade lava lamp, it will react with the liquid and release carbon dioxide gas bubbles. These bubbles will rise to the top, carrying the colored liquid with them, creating a bubbling effect similar to a lava lamp.
The "hot" conductor of the lamp circuit.
The verb in the sentence is "makes." It is the action that the subject (the lamp) is performing on the object (the room).
Yes, the heat is important in lava lams.
wax and water. when heated. the water becomes less dense than the wax causing the colored bubbles to rise and then fall. wax is generally what there is more of within the lava lamp. and as i said the bubbles that rise and fall are just colored or cloudy type water. CAUTION: never place lava lamp in a microwave.
The dependent variable in a homemade lava lamp experiment could be the amount of time it takes for the oil and water to separate, the number of bubbles formed, or the height of the "lava lamp" effect.
A hypothesis for making a lava lamp could be: "If I combine oil, water, and effervescent tablet in a bottle, then the chemical reaction will cause bubbles to form and rise to the top, creating a lava lamp effect."
