The filament is fine so that its electrical resistance can be quite high. It is also long, for the same reason. Usually it is coiled up to fit the length in the lamp. The heating effect of electric current is proportional to the current squared, time the resistance (I*I*R). Most of the effect is due to the current. The current through the filament must be limited to stop it melting. Adding resistance will do that. Taking resistance away increases heating. So, a low energy lamp has a very thin filament and a high energy lamp will have a thicker filament.

Incandescent lamps are filled with a mixture of argon- 93 % and nitrogen-7 %.
Mostly heat, but that heat causes a filament to glow, which makes light.
i believe it is cadnium.
(Filament is a thread or thin wire.)Is the lamp unplugged or is the filament broken in the bulb?A silkworm's cocoon is made from a thin filament which can be twisted into thread.
A filament lamp uses infrared radiation, visible light, and a small amount of ultraviolet radiation within the electromagnetic spectrum.
A lamp with a thick filament will draw more current. What restricts the current flow in the filament is the resistance of the filament which increases as the temperature of the filament increases. A thin filament requires less energy to get heated up that a thick one so less current to achieve threshold resistance. Also a thick filament provides a broader path for current so there is less resistance per increase in degree centigrade. For these two (closely related but distinct) reasons it will require more current for the filament to get heated up to threshold resistance.
The light bulb or LED component of the lamp converts electricity into light through the process of electricity flowing through a filament or semiconductor material, which then emits photons, creating light.
A filament lamp produces light by converting electrical energy into heat and then light. It acts as a resistive load in the circuit, meaning it resists the flow of current and causes the filament to glow and produce light.
If the filament inside a lamp is broken, it cannot conduct electricity properly, which is essential for generating light. The broken filament creates a gap in the circuit, preventing the flow of electricity needed to produce light. As a result, the lamp will not light up.
Yes, the resistance of the filament of a light bulb is what generates enough heat to make the filament glow and produce light.

fifi eats the filament and turns it into a bernard

tungsten lamp has got inert gas argonsometimes iodine is added to improve intensity carbon filament produces less light than tungsten lamp but it radiates much less energy in the form of heat waves
