Yes, light bulbs are still in use today, although there has been a shift towards more energy-efficient options like LED bulbs. Traditional incandescent light bulbs are being phased out in many places due to their lower efficiency and shorter lifespan.
The original Edison light bulb used a carbon based filament, later a metallic filament (tungsten) was used to increase the life of the bulb. Today the government has mandated that a fluorescent type bulb be used
No, a light fixture does not consume electricity if there is no bulb in it. The bulb is what generates light when electricity passes through it, so without a bulb, there is no circuit to complete and no electricity is being used.
Edison used a carbonized bamboo filament in the first successful incandescent light bulb he created. This innovation allowed the light bulb to produce light for longer periods of time without burning out.
No, a light bulb does not have magnets. A light bulb works by passing electricity through a filament, causing it to glow and produce light. Magnets are not used in the operation of a regular light bulb.
Yes, in fact that is what a rough service bulb is rated at. The bulb used on a 120 volt system will have a reduced wattage output as to what it would be on 130 volts.
The most common light bulb shape used in households today is the A19 shape.
No
the same as we use it today

Tungsten is the most common today.
yes
Usually tungsten.
Before the light bulb was invented, people used lanterns, candles, and fire for light. Today, with all the technology going on, we use electricity to produce light such as for the light bulb. So the most commonly used way to make light is by electricity.

where was the first light bulb used
The light bulb will probably burn out, if the fuse of the lamp does not burn out first. On the other hand, a lamp with 240V rating can still be used in the USA, but the light will be about half as bright for the same light bulb.
