Because the light form the bulb produces heat witch produes thermal energy.
A light bulb produces light energy and thermal energy while it is turned on. The light energy is visible light that illuminates the surroundings, while the thermal energy is the heat generated as a byproduct of the light production.
A light bulb in an electrical circuit transforms electrical energy into light energy and thermal energy (heat).
No, the heat given off by a light bulb is not considered chemical energy. This heat is a byproduct of the conversion of electrical energy into light energy and thermal energy in the filament of the bulb.
In a traditional light bulb, the electrical energy is converted to heat. The filament gets hot and emits the thermal energy as light. The electrical energy itself is not directly converted to light but goes through the thermal energy stage.There are many kinds of lights and more complicated processes which are not described in this brief answer.
In an incandescent light bulb, electrical energy is transformed into thermal energy and then into light energy. When electricity flows through the filament of the bulb, it heats up and becomes white-hot, producing thermal energy. This thermal energy then causes the filament to glow and emit light energy.
When lighting a light bulb, it is changed into light and heat/thermal energy.
A light bulb produces light energy and thermal energy while it is turned on. The light energy is visible light that illuminates the surroundings, while the thermal energy is the heat generated as a byproduct of the light production.
No. It converts electrical energy into light and thermal energy only.

light bulb, the sun.
No, the heat given off by a light bulb is not considered chemical energy. This heat is a byproduct of the conversion of electrical energy into light energy and thermal energy in the filament of the bulb.

The answer should be pretty obvious. Just try to think about this. What energy is used? What does the light-bulb produce? In this case, the light-bulb requires electricity, and it produces both heat and light, so electrical energy is converted into light energy and heat energy.
The type of energy that makes a light bulb feel warm is heat energy. This energy is generated as a byproduct of the light bulb's operation and is emitted in the form of infrared radiation, which can be felt as warmth.
Electrical energy (the electric current) is transformed into thermal energy (by heating the filament to incandescence), and this thermal energy creates electromagnetic energy in the form of light.
None. But it does convert 5 watts of electrical power (energy per unit time) into 5 watts of [light + thermal] power.
