    This is nice. I'm doing a experiment on light bulbs for my science class.

    Neat. I knew there was heat involved in a light bulb but I never knew how exactly it worked. The voice added a nice touch to it.

      Horseman well then you'll be surprised to know light is only a byproduct in this whole system. The major product being heat which accounts to round about 90%.

    The really cool thing about these 'simple' devices is that they are Electro Magnetic converters. 60Hz in and a wide range of frequencies out. Not only visible light, but IR and sometimes UV as well. They are true multifrequency oscillators way above radio frequency. :)

    @RUL1S88 no one really knows why it works it just does . It mainly has to do with Atoms of particular metals and how they can transfer electrons from one small atom to another they use metals like copper wire to transfer these electrons of positively charged energy ( a bit like static energy )The reason the bulb does not burn from the heat because their is no oxygen in it .Thats why it has the glass around it when they made it the oxygen is sucked out of the glass encasing

  • @alucardlord9032
    @alucardlord9032 3 роки тому +1

    can you consider the filament of the light bulb as molten fire?
    and can it burn any substance on contact or it can be insulated like electricity with rubber or other high insulating materials?
    because if we say its electrical then rubber should do the work to insulate that burning filament right?

  • @damnyancey

    @philsnk there aint no air in the bulb. its under a vacume. thats why they pop when they break. air would cause th filament to burn out.

  • @captain150
    @captain150 13 років тому

    @damnyancey That's wrong too. Light bulbs contain an inert gas, usually argon. This is to slow down the evaporation of tungsten. Look it up.

  • @MichelJCardin
    @MichelJCardin 12 років тому

    @MichelJCardin And also there is the fact that smaller the wire; less energy it needs to reach luminating temperature.

  • @MichelJCardin
    @MichelJCardin 12 років тому

    @MichelJCardin Way better by just re-structuring the format and adding a circuit within the filament so that it gets hot easier and insulating it at close perimetre and sealed at that but there may then be melting issues of the glass which then an alternative would perhaps be to reach with mirrors a reflection apon it's self from a distance in multipal areas. These should have you all thinking a while.

    @audreyx12 :no he didn't. Everybody thinks so, but he did NOT invent the light bulb. Joseph Swan did. Edison developed and improved it a lot, but it wasn't his original invention. This issue was brought to Court and The British Courts stood by their patent award for the light bulb to Swan, and Edison lost the suit.

    Does the filament react quickly enough to reveal the 60 Hz AC power? 50 Hz in the UK.

      Sada Sabbathi tungsten has a point where it can take one amount of electricity e.g. one may have 15 volts even 15.1 can explode or melt it that’s how bulbs normally break

    @hhokyo An accent is simply how you pronounce words, so everyone has an accent in that regard. I agree with you though. English came from Britain, so if one had to have an accent and the other didnt, I would say its America. British English seems to pronounce a lot of words as how they are spelled too, which makes sense to me. No need to over complicate an already complicated language.

  • @abimanoharan2378
    @abimanoharan2378 7 років тому

    This may sound ignorant but what's stopping the copper wire from melting? (assuming it has a lower melting point than tungsten)
    thank you

    • @abimanoharan2378
      @abimanoharan2378 7 років тому

      is it because it is a poor conductor?

    • @XXL3G1TC4NXX
      @XXL3G1TC4NXX 7 років тому +1

      Abi Manoharan Copper atoms in the copper wiring are much smaller than the atoms of tungsten. The electrons freely flow through the area in between the copper atoms because of this, but they crash into the tungsten atoms due to their large size. When the electrons hit into the tungsten we see the transfer and release of energy as light.

    @ RuneScapeSalva,
    My sincere apologies as this certainly was not my intent. I just like sharing things I have learned over the years. I learn new things everyday and try to encourage others to do the same. It is especially cool when we can see things from other viewpoints and it unlocks our thought process to new possibilities. Soon science will discover that energy and matter can easily be converted from one to the other. If a pitcher pitched a ball of light could a batter hit it? Timing... :D

  • @NZKartsport

    • @alphasiera1757
      @alphasiera1757 8 років тому +1

      +Minji Kim no, it's because of the frequency of the generator that produces the electricity. frequency is the number of rotation of the rotor of generator per second, for every turn there will be 1 rotation, we call that 1 hertz, and that's the frequency. In USA the standard voltage is 120 and frequency is 60hz, now, if the generator producing the electricity turns too slow, lets say from 60hz to 10hz, you would notice that the bulb would start to flicker. actually your incandescent bulb right now are flickering but you dont notice it because it happens very fast, thats 60 times per second(60hz) but if you view it slow motion, you can cleary see that it's flickering. the more you know!
