No, a light bulb will not sink in water because it is less dense than water. The air inside the light bulb makes it buoyant, causing it to float on the surface of the water.

Does a light bulb affect water?

Not really, but the light bulb might not work if it's on and you put it in water.

Probally not.


Is it possible for water to make a light bulb light up?

NO


Can you make water light enough to sink a cork?

no


Why is salt water able to light a bulb?

Salt water is able to light a bulb because it conducts electricity. When a voltage is applied across the salt water, the ions from the dissolved salt allow electric current to flow, completing the circuit and allowing the bulb to light up.


How long does it take water to evaporate under a 75 watt light bulb?

The time it takes for water to evaporate under a 75 watt light bulb can vary depending on factors such as the amount of water, humidity levels, and distance from the light bulb. Typically, it may take a few hours to a day for a small amount of water to evaporate under a 75 watt light bulb.


What happens when you place a light bulb in a little water and put it in a microwave?

the light bulb will light up because of the different heat waves in the microwave. If you want to try thisfirst you take a small cup and fill it with a little bit of water take a light bulb and place it in water then put it a microwave for ten seconds.note don't put in microwave for more than twenty seconds the light bulb will explode


Does the temp affect how light bulbs evaporate water?

The light bulb increases the temperature, and the higher the temperature, the faster evaporation occurs. The light bulb itself doesn't evaporate water. If you're using the old incandescent light bulbs, they will give off a lot more heat, and evaporate more water than an energy-saving bulb. It also depends on the distance between the bulb and the water, the surface area, mass of water, and time.


Does a 60 watt light bulb evaporate water faster than the sun?

Faster than ambient left alone? If compare to open air then it is faster with extra heat source of 100 Watt. If it had twice the bulb then it is faster than 1 bulb. Light bulb is the energy source and evaporation require energy. Provide extra energy help speed up evaporation.


Can you light up a bulb using salt and water?

Aqueous solution of salt and water serves as electrolyte which acts as conducting medium.


Why do you think salt water can light the bulb but distilled water cannot?

Salt water conducts electricity and contains ions that can complete the circuit and allow the bulb to light up. Distilled water, on the other hand, is a poor conductor of electricity as it lacks ions and impurities needed to carry the electrical current.


Does the specific gravity of ice change if it is heavy water?

Of course. Heavy water ice will sink in light water.
