Answer:

false

Explanation:

=>The electric bulb is the glass enclosure around the filament that often contains a vacuum or is filled with a low-pressure noble gas to prevent the filament from burning out due to evaporation at high temperature. The coiled filaments of incandescent lamps are made up of tungsten, a high resistance material that is drawn into a wire. It has both a high melting point (3382 degrees Celsius) and a low pressure which keep it from melting or evaporating too quickly. Supplying electricity through this coiled tungsten wire generates the light. Due to the resistance, it is heated until the wire becomes white-hot. The emission of light by heating the filament wire to white-hot level is known as incandescence. Here, the electrical energy is converted to heat energy by the resistance of the wire. A fused electric bulb has its filament cut, because at higher temperature for a longer period of time, the tungsten filament melts and the flow of electric current stops and the bulb loses its original utility.
