did sir issac newton invent the light bulb?

Question

did he inent the light bulb

Answer 1

I think that was Thomas Eddison

Answer 2

Newton Light Bulb

Answer 3

No, the light bulb was invented by Leonardo Da Vinci! It is a little known fact that he also invented the heavy bulb, but thus far no use has been discovered for that! It was with the help of his novel form of illumination that he painted 'La Gioconda', a picture that Isaac Newton greatly admired, and subsequently re-christened the Mona Lisa. It used to hang in his loo, but now it hangs in the Louvre, near Paris.

The French got their hands on it by stealing Da Vinci's designs for the helicopter and flying down to make a dawn raid on Newton's ancestral home.

Meanwhile, Thomas Edison got hold of Da Vinci's 'mirror writing' and, gnivah dekcarc eht edoc, made short work of filing patents on all of the Italian genius's inventions- thus ensuring his own fame and fortune.

Answer 4

The inventer of the lightbulb is a highly contended title. Many say that Thomas Edison did, but he did not. Indeed, a British scientist, Joseph Swan obtained the first patent for the same lightbulb a year before Edison claimed to have invented it.
The British courts took on Edison and won with Edison conceding that he would name Swan as a partner in his new company.
However, the original inventer of the lightbulb is a completed matter involving patents, court orders etc. so requires much indepth reading.......

Answer 5

No, an American called Thomas Eddison invented the light bulb, and that as after a British man called Faraday discovered electricity. Newton discovered and "Invented" the word Gravity, after an apple hit him on the head. And if you want to see how much gravity something would use while dropping to the floor, use a Newton Scale.
Newton also created the lightbulb to have the "Bayonet" clip, as he'd seen U.S soldiers fighting the Native American Indians attatch the bayonet to their muskets and noitced it was a secure fit, the screw-in light bulb was invented a few years later.

Newton though, became a "Sir" after his services to physical sciences.

Answer 6

don't be daft - he was born in 1643 !!!

Thomas Edison is generally credited with the invention of the elctric light bulb, but here's some back story....

The first incandescent electric light was made in 1800 by Humphry Davy, an English scientist. He experimented with electricity and invented an electric battery. When he connected wires to his battery and a piece of carbon, the carbon glowed, producing light. This is called an electric arc.

Much later, in 1860, the English physicist Sir Joseph Wilson Swan (1828-1914) was determined to devise a practical, long-lasting electric light. He found that a carbon paper filament worked well, but burned up quickly. In 1878, he demonstrated his new electric lamps in Newcastle, England.

The inventor Thomas Alva Edison (in the USA) experimented with thousands of different filaments to find just the right materials to glow well and be long-lasting. In 1879, Edison discovered that a carbon filament in an oxygen-free bulb glowed but did not burn up for 40 hours. Edison eventually produced a bulb that could glow for over 1500 hours.

Answer 7

Edison invented the first REUSABLE light bulb in 1870ish but the first electric bulb was invented in England in 1810ish, why do Americans always claim to have invented everything when they just used European and Asian scientist which they offered a free passport and research grants too.

atom bomb: German Robert Oppenheimer, Albert Einstein

jet engine : English frank whittle

computer: English Charles Babbage

all modern industry's were discovered by Europeans or Asians ,all America did was either provide money for inventors so they can claim it was an American invention and then mass produce an inferior version to make the most profit

Answer 8

Guys shut up sir issac Newton did invent it

Answer 9

No...... Thomas Alva Edison invented the light bulb in1879.

Sir Isaac Newton created the three laws of motion. He also invented calculus.

Answer 10

Newton died in the 18th century and the light bulb was
invented by Thomas Edison.

Answer 11

Humphrey Davy was the first man to produce light by passing electricity through a filament in 1901, but the light lasted only a few seconds before it burned out.

Thomas Edison (USA), Joseph Swan (UK) and Alexander Lodygin (Russia) all developed the lightbulb almost simultaneously, and with varying degrees of success, in the 1870s. Lodygin was awarded a Russian patent in 1874, Swan was awarded a UK patent in 1878, and Edison did not manage a US patent until 1889 (due to legal wranglings).
