The electrical energy input which is meant to turn the lights on is not 100% used (since no machine is 100% efficient.) Most of this energy is wasted as heat energy.


If a substance reaches a certain temperature it gives off light and heat. When a filament light bulb reaches that temperature, it gives off both light and heat

What energy occurs in the light bulb?

light and heat energy occur in a light bulb when it is turned on.


When a light bulb is glowing which form of energy goes into the bulb Which form of energy leave it?

The energy that goes in is electrical energy; the energy that leaves it is visible light, as well as heat.


What transformation did electrical energy undergo to make the bulb glow?

The electrical energy was transformed into light and heat energy in the light bulb, causing it to glow. This transformation occurs when the electricity passes through the filament in the bulb, producing light and heat as a result of the filament's resistance to the flow of electricity.


What does a light bulb changes electricity into?

Light and heat.


What controls a light bulb and the heat in an incubator?

The light bulb can be controlled on a timer, or simply manually switched on and off. The heat can be controlled by using a thermostat. Some bulbs also provide both light and heat, and by raising the bulb the heat can be approximately controlled.


What type of heat is shown coming from a light bulb?

The heat from a light bulb is primarily radiant heat, which is transferred through electromagnetic waves. Additionally, some heat may be transferred through conduction to the bulb's surroundings.


When the switch is closed how will the energy convert into light and heat by bulb compare with the energy converted into light and heat by bulb?

When the switch is closed, the electrical energy from the power source will flow through the circuit and into the light bulb. The bulb's filament will get hot due to the resistance, producing light and heat. The efficiency of energy conversion into light and heat by the bulb depends on the bulb's design and materials, as well as any losses due to inefficiencies in the circuit.
