continuous emission
A lamp transforms electrical energy into light and heat. When electricity passes through the lamp's filament, it heats up and emits light as a result.
You pull the string and it turns on, you pull it again and it turns off.
i believe it is cadnium.
A lamp with a thick filament will draw more current. What restricts the current flow in the filament is the resistance of the filament which increases as the temperature of the filament increases. A thin filament requires less energy to get heated up that a thick one so less current to achieve threshold resistance. Also a thick filament provides a broader path for current so there is less resistance per increase in degree centigrade. For these two (closely related but distinct) reasons it will require more current for the filament to get heated up to threshold resistance.
Mains filament
The light bulb or LED component of the lamp converts electricity into light through the process of electricity flowing through a filament or semiconductor material, which then emits photons, creating light.
A filament lamp produces light by converting electrical energy into heat and then light. It acts as a resistive load in the circuit, meaning it resists the flow of current and causes the filament to glow and produce light.
(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.
1amp 3 max depends on what rating lamp it is (or bulb).
If the filament inside a lamp is broken, it cannot conduct electricity properly, which is essential for generating light. The broken filament creates a gap in the circuit, preventing the flow of electricity needed to produce light. As a result, the lamp will not light up.

Yes, the resistance of the filament of a light bulb is what generates enough heat to make the filament glow and produce light.
fifi eats the filament and turns it into a bernard
