Which is more powerful a torch bulb or a mains filament lamp?
Mains filament
What type of light contains a filament?
All kinds of incandescent lamp, and all types of light bulb contains filament. But there are several kinds of filament applied each type of light bulb.
What is filament transformer?
In vacuum tube devices, one electrode of the tube (the filament) needs low voltage at relatively high current, while another one (the plate) needs a high voltage at relatively low current. It's hard to build a single power supply to provide both of these, so the filament is usually supplied from its own separate transformer. Nobody has worried about things like this since a short time after transistors came along.
What is the wire that gives off light in a light bulb?
In an incandescent light bulb the wire that gives off the light is called the Filament.
What is the filament in lights?
Filament is a thin part of incandescent bulb which is the source of electric light that electric current passes through and heated it until it produce light.
What is the purpose of the light bulb stem?
It is used to support the filament assembly.
What was the purpose of the light bulb filament?
The purpose of the light bulb filament is to produce light when electricity passes through it, heating it up and causing it to emit light. The filament is usually made of tungsten due to its high melting point and ability to withstand the heat generated during lighting.
What is the purpose of the filament inside the light bulb?
The filament is a special metal composition of tungsten that conducts current and heats up and emits light as a result of the current and its internal resistance.
Do incandescent bulbs contain a filament of platinum?
No, incandescent bulbs typically contain a filament made of tungsten. Platinum is a rare and expensive metal that is not commonly used for this purpose due to its cost and lower melting point compared to tungsten.
What supports the anther?
The filament supports the anther in a flower.
What part of the plant Holds the anther high?
The stamen, or to be more specific, the microsporangia.
Is viscose a staple or filament fiber?
Filament
Sentence with filament?
The incandescent light bulb uses a filament made of tungsten to produce light when electricity passes through it.
What is filament shaped into?
Bulb's filament are wounded into a coil.
How do you Use filament in a sentence?
(Filament is a thread or thin wire.)Is the lamp unplugged or is the filament broken in the bulb?A silkworm's cocoon is made from a thin filament which can be twisted into thread.
What filament is responsible for the pulling and what filament is pulled in the sliding filament theory?
In the sliding filament theory of muscle contraction, the thin filament (actin) slides over the thick filament (myosin). Myosin is responsible for pulling the actin filaments towards the center of the sarcomere during muscle contraction.
Name two part of the stamen?
The two main parts of the stamen are the filament, which is the stalk-like structure that supports the anther, and the anther, which is the pollen-producing portion located at the top of the filament.
