The Light Bulb: One of the Most Useful Inventions in the World People need light to be able to see. In the morning‚ there is sunlight. But in the night‚ people use electric light made from light bulbs. Without light bulbs‚ people would not be able to see and would have to rely on their other senses to do tasks. Without light bulbs‚ our lives would be very different. The light bulb is a very useful invention that people all over the world use every day. The creation of the light bulb can be traced

The light bulb is an invention that has been around since the 1800’s. This invention has significantly‚ affected society by allowing the world to create a comfortable safe environment. The light bulb was invented in 1879 using lower current electricity‚ a small carbonized filament‚ and an improved vacuum inside the globe; this was not an original invention by Edison this was an improved invention by Edison from 50 years ago. Edison was able to produce a reliable‚ long-lasting source of light

Sun light vs articical light One of the main benefits of artificial light is that you can control how many hours of light per day your plants receive. This way‚ those living in northern or southern latitudes can provide their plants with light for growth and development even when the sun sets early‚ in essence tricking the plants into believing that it is summertime and that they should continue to grow rather than become dormant or‚ in the case of annuals‚ die. In addition‚ your plants will receive

Research question : How does the different light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis in plants? Objective : To investigate the relationship between different light intensity (by having the source of light at different distance to the plant discs which is at; 10cm‚ 15cm‚ 20cm‚ 25cm‚ 30cm‚ and 35cm ) and rate of photosynthesis of plant. Introduction : Photosynthesis is the process where light energy is absorbed by green plants to convert the raw materials (carbon dioxide and water) into

Refraction: Does light travel faster in water or air? A straight stick appears bent when partially immersed in water; the sun appears oval rather than round when it is about to set; a stream may appear to be much shallower than you know it to be. These are some of the effects caused by the refraction of light as it passes at an angle from one medium to another. Light refraction happens every day in almost every little thing‚ it is an optical illusion. For our science fair project my

The effects of different wavelengths of light on the rate of photosynthesis Introduction This experiment was performed to investigate the effects of different wavelengths of light on the rate of photosynthesis. If a multiple colored film petri dishes are place under a 50 watt lamp‚ then the rate of photosynthesis will be greater for those with red‚ blue and clear film‚ than those with green and black film. We believed the petri dishes with the red‚ blue and clear film would produce the best
