No, a copper penny cannot make a light bulb glow on its own. The electrical conductivity of copper is too low to generate enough current to power a light bulb. Additional components, such as a power source and circuit, would be needed to make the light bulb glow.

Is a dark light bulb starting to glow a conversion from chemical energy to mechanical?

No, the process of a dark light bulb starting to glow is a conversion from electrical energy to light energy. The electricity flowing through the filament of the light bulb generates heat and light, causing it to glow. Chemical energy is not involved in this process.


Can you use a copper wire to make a filament of an electric bulb?

No, copper wire cannot be used to make the filament of an electric bulb as copper wire has very low resistance. Therefore, the bulb will not glow if current is passed. It would also melt - the filament has to be white-hot to be any use!


Does a light bulb have magnet?

When one terminal of the cell is joined by copper wire to the one terminal of bulband another terminal of cell with aluminium wire to the other terminal of bulb. Will the bulb glow Give reason for yo?

Both copper and aluminium wire will conduct electricity, so the bulb will glow. Aluminium is less efficient at conducting than copper. Copper-clad aluminium wire is electrical wire coated with a thin layer of copper.
