When an electric bulb is switched on, electrical energy gets transformed into heat and light energy.
- An electric bulb is connected to two ends of a circuit.
- When the circuit is closed (switched on), current flows from the negative terminal to the positive terminal passing through the bulb's filament.
- As electron collision takes place, the filament atoms begin to vibrate.
- This heats up the filament, resulting in the generation of heat energy.
- The heat causes the excitation of the electrons in the atoms.
- This produces electromagnetic radiation, which is in the form of light energy.
- This is how the electrical energy is converted to heat and light energies.
