Question

Why is a copper wire not used in the filament of a bulb?

Answer 1

No, copper wire cannot be used to make the filament of an electric bulb as copper wire has very low resistance. Therefore, the bulb will not glow if current is passed. It would also melt - the filament has to be white-hot to be any use!
