Either by the current heating a fine wire until it glows in the incandescent lamp,

by an electrical discharge exciting agas or flourescent material in gas-discharge and flourescent lapms respectively,

or by a quantum effect in the light-emitting diode.

What does a light bulb in an electrical circuit transform to?

A light bulb in an electrical circuit transforms electrical energy into light energy and thermal energy (heat).


Where is the energy stored in a flashlight?

Energy is stored in the battery in a flashlight. When switched off, the energy is chemical potential energy. When you switch on, chemical reactions occur, the chemical energy is changed to electrical energy in the circuit, and then electrical energy is changed to light energy in the bulb.


What energy conversion ooccur when a switch is closed?

When a switch is closed, electrical energy is converted into other forms of energy depending on the circuit. For example, in a light bulb circuit, electrical energy is converted into light and heat energy. In an electric motor circuit, electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy.


When the light bulb is lit electrical energy is changed into light energy and?

When lighting a light bulb, it is changed into light and heat/thermal energy.


How does energy change form in a flashlight?

In a flashlight, electrical energy from the batteries is converted into light energy and thermal energy. The electrical energy flows through the circuit to power the light bulb, which emits light energy. Some of the electrical energy is also converted into thermal energy due to the resistance in the circuit and the light bulb filament.


What does bulb do in a circuit?

It converts electrical energy into heat and light.


What does the light bulb do in a circuit?

Bulbs convert an electrical energy to produce light


What part of a circuit converts electrical energy into other forms of energy?

A resistor in a circuit converts electrical energy into heat energy, while a light bulb converts electrical energy into light and heat energy. Other components, such as motors, can convert electrical energy into mechanical energy.


Would a light switch converts electrical energy?

No, a light switch does not convert electrical energy. It simply opens or closes the circuit to control the flow of electrical current to the light bulb, which then converts electrical energy into light energy.


The object that uses up the energy being delievered in an electrical circuit is called the?

The object that uses up the energy being delivered in an electrical circuit is called the "load." This can be a device or component that converts electrical energy into another form of energy, such as light in a light bulb or motion in a motor. The load impedes the flow of current and consumes the electrical energy provided by the circuit.


Does the spring in a flashlight complete the circuit or does it convert electrical energy into light energy?

The spring in a flashlight completes the circuit by providing a connection between the battery and the light bulb. It does not convert electrical energy into light energy - the light bulb does that function.


When a light bulb is lit electrical energy is changed into light energy and?

heat energy. The electrical energy powers the light emission in the bulb, producing both light and heat as byproducts of the process.
