You can make a bulb fainter by reducing the voltage supplied to it. This can be done by using a dimmer switch or by using a resistor in the circuit to decrease the voltage. Be cautious when altering electrical components to prevent damage to the bulb or circuit.

How would you make a bulb in a circuit shine with a fainter light?

You can make a bulb shine with a fainter light by reducing the voltage supplied to the circuit. This can be done by adding a resistor in series with the bulb to limit the current flowing through it, or by using a dimmer switch to adjust the voltage. Decreasing the power to the bulb will result in a dimmer light output.


Can a copper penny make a light bulb glow?

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.


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!


How do you know a light bulb is fused or blown?

When a bulb is brown the whole bulb would be shaded brown and would be the same shade all over. When a bulb has blown or fused then firstly part of the bulb would be brown the rest of the bulb would be the original colour. Secondly the the internal element that looks like a spring will have broken and roll around inside the bulb.


Did albert Einstein make the first light bulb?

No, Albert Einstein did not make the first light bulb. The first practical incandescent light bulb was invented by Thomas Edison in 1879. Einstein made significant contributions to physics, but he did not invent the light bulb.

Viewed from Pluto would the Sun would appear more than a thousand times fainter than on earth?

Yes, from Pluto, the Sun would appear more than a thousand times fainter than on Earth due to the increased distance. Pluto is an average distance of about 3.7 billion miles away from the Sun, leading to a significant decrease in sunlight intensity compared to Earth's distance of about 93 million miles.
