carbon filament in a light bulb does obey the ohm's law right?
Ohm's Law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points. This means that as the voltage increases, the current also increases, and vice versa.
In carbon filament light bulbs, the filament is the conductor that allows electricity to flow. According to Ohm's Law, as the voltage increases, the current through the filament also increases, causing it to heat up and produce light.
Carbon filament light bulbs have a low efficiency and produce a lot of heat, making them less energy-efficient than other types of light bulbs. As a result, they are being phased out in favor of more energy-efficient options such as LED bulbs.
Yes, Ohm's Law can be applied to all types of light bulbs, as it is a fundamental law of electricity and relates to the flow of current through a conductor. However, the specific characteristics of each type of light bulb may affect the exact values of voltage and current.
The resistance of a carbon filament light bulb increases as the temperature increases. This is because the higher temperature causes the atoms in the filament to vibrate more, making it more difficult for electrons to flow through, and increasing the overall resistance of the bulb.
