Why is the filament inside an electric lamp made very fine?
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.
What would happen to the filament in an IR lamp if too much current flowed into it?
The answer is no. However, it will run out of electricity if you put a lot of energy into the light bulb when you switch it on. Thank you for asking young fellow person who is unknown to me. -Your fellow friend
What does finding pieces of broken glass for no reason mean?
Finding pieces of broken glass for no reason may symbolize feeling scattered or broken emotionally, or experiencing a sense of discord and chaos in your life. It could also suggest a need for caution or mindfulness in your thoughts and actions to avoid potential harm or destruction.
What is the gas inside a filament lamp?
Most common house hold light bulbs are really just evacuated to really low pressures and contain a tungsten filament. the reason being is that tungsten has high resistivity and low corrosive properties. they used to use carbon in the beginning. the reason for the vacuum is to prevent evaporation of the filament.ArgonUsually they are filled with an inert gas such as nitrogen and others are filled with a gas containing low pressure mercury vapour and argon, xenon, neon or krypton.An inert gas such as Argon
Is non ohmic filament better than ohmic filament?
How can a filament give off heat without resistance?Another AnswerThe terms, 'ohmic' and 'non-ohmic' refer to whether or not a material obeys Ohm's Law. It has NOTHING to do with whether a filament is resistive or not!Ohmic materials obey Ohm's Law; non-ohmic materials do not.GSL incandescent lamps generally use a filament made of tungsten. If you were to apply a gradually-increasing voltage to that filament, and note the corresponding values of current and, then, plot the results in the form of a graph, you would find that the graph is a curve. For Ohm's Law to apply, the current must be proportional to voltage for variations in voltage and this is ONLY true for a straight-line graph. Tungsten, therefore, is non-ohmic and does not obey Ohm's Law.Tungsten is chosen for lamp filaments because it can withstand very high temperatures without failing. This is the main reason that it is chosen, NOT because it is non-ohmic.
Can you measure a vacuum tube using ohmmeter?
Maybe, but not sure info would be useful. You can use ohmmeter to check that a tube's filament is intact. Broken/burned-out filament is most likely reason for dead tube.
Why do batteries die over time even when not connected to anything?
the reason for that is because if a battery is not connected to a wall it will not get additional energy for its high potential electrons. the reason for that is because if a batttery is not connected to a wall it is not getting additional energy for high potential electrons
What could be a reason a smoke detector did not make any sound?
It could be broken, or the battery may be dead.
What are the different reason why a 93 Dodge Intrepid would overheat?
i just connected my ac belt and there was a black wire that was disconnected from the battery and i attached it back to the battery
Why does a battery terminal spark when connecting?
ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS connect the (+) cable FIRST. The reason it sparked was the ( - ) negative cable was already connected.
What describes electricity flowing from a battery though a switch to a light bulb?
Circuit Electrons flow form the positive end of the battery through the wire connecting the positive terminal to a switch. The other end of the switch is connected to one terminal on the bulb, the other terminal of the bulb is connected to the negative end of the battery. No electrons (current) flows as long as the switch is open. Once the switch is closed and if the battery has enough voltage and current capacity to make the filament in the bulb glow, then the bulb emits light (together with wasted heat). If the switch is open, no current flows through the entire circuit and the bulb does not glow.
How do find the reason for no spark on a L100 john Deere?
Check the plug. If broken, replace it. If fouled clean it.Check your plug wire. If broken replace it.Check your battery. If dead, charge it or replace it.
Idle problem when changing the battery on new Toyota?
if you are trying to change it while it is running it always needs an earth for the ecu otherwise there should not be any reason connected with the battery to cause idle problem
Why no ignition light?
The reason for no ignition light could be a low battery. The wiring system may be another reason for this. Check the white wires in the ignition switch and the multi-plug connector to ensure they are connected.
How to replace my broken battery chargers?
If you are going to replace your battery charger, I would suggest buying a Energizer or Duracell battery charger. There is a reason these names have stuck around all of these years. After you decide which one you like, go check out Ebay and find yourself a deal.
Why does wiring batteries in a series makes bulbs glow brighter then if they were wired in parallel?
If two light bulbs are connected in the same series circuit, each one will glow dimmerthan it would if it were the only one in the circuit with the same power supply.
How is calculus connected to science?
It is connected because when isaac newton invented calculus it was for a reason that reason was to calculate the speed and density of something. It is connected because when isaac newton invented calculus it was for a reason that reason was to calculate the speed and density of something.
