Efficiency of an Incandescent Light Bulb Alex Mendez November 4‚ 2008 Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to examine the conversion of electrical energy to light and thermal energy as well as the efficiency of incandescent light bulbs. Procedure: To design this experiment we need to have a jar with water‚ temperature‚ and an voltage source. First‚ we poured 200 mL of water into a beaker then poured into a cup. We then stir up the water and measured the initial temperature of

Effects of Cold Weather on Incandescent Light Bulbs Abstract Cold weather hasn’t previously been known to have much of an effect on incandescent light bulbs. But colder temperatures do make electricity flow more smoothly and easily. In this experiment‚ it was concluded that cold weather‚ does in fact‚ affect an incandescent light bulb in a circuit. The tests in this experiment showed that when a light bulb circuit is placed in cold temperatures‚ the incandescent light bulb seems to glow brighter
