A normal light bulb can take up to 20-30 kilowatts so it all depends on what type of light bulb. My light bulb can take 15 kilowatts max and will blow out in an hour straight. So if your using some different type of light bulb like an Eco friendly one, look at the package to see for details or talk to your local electrician.

What might happen if a light was left on?

Leaving a light on can lead to increased electricity usage and higher energy bills. Additionally, it can contribute to unnecessary light pollution and environmental impact. Over time, it may also cause the light bulb to burn out faster, requiring replacement sooner.


Is electricity invented first or light invented first?

Firstly, Light was not "invented." It's merely existed since the beginning of time. The light from the sun is the perfect example. It wasn't invented, yet it gives off light. Anyways, electricity wasn't invented either. It's also a natural product of nature, lightning being a good example. Before light bulbs were invented, candles were commonly used. Light bulbs required electricity to work. So if you're referring to "which came first, the light bulb or the 'invention' of electricity?" question, then it would really be a matter of looking back in your history book. It was in the 1750's that Ben Franklin began studying electricity, and proved that lightning is indeed a form of electricity. In 1879, Thomas Edison made the first working light bulb, running off of electricity of course. So you can see it was over 100 years after the study of electricity itself that the light bulb was invented, thus "inventing" light.


Do you explode in space?

No, you do not explode in space. In the vacuum of space, there is no air pressure to cause your body to explode. However, without a spacesuit, you would not be able to breathe and would eventually lose consciousness and die due to lack of oxygen.


What would happen if the world had no electricity?

Without electricity, many key functions of society would be severely disrupted. Communication systems would fail, transportation would be hampered, and access to clean water and food storage would be limited. Major industries such as healthcare, finance, and manufacturing would also struggle to operate effectively.


Why did people think the light bulb was not going to work?

People initially thought the light bulb wouldn't work because they believed the wire filaments would burn out quickly, the vacuum inside the bulb would not be maintained, and that electricity would be too expensive to produce light.
