Describe how incandescent and Fluorescent lightning differ?

Answer 1

To add to the previous responder: flourescent lighting converts electricity into light with about four times the efficiency of incandescent lights, so a 15-Watt flourescent is about as bright as a 60-Watt incandescent. This is important when you pay your own electric bill.

Answer 2

incandescent use electricity to heat up a filament, converting electrical energy into thermal and light energy, as filament emits visible light as the resistance in it causes it to heat up due to applied voltage and current.

Fluorescent lights use the ionisation of noble (stable) gases and rely on the released energy of the ionisation to emit enough visible light (less heat, less energy waste, more efficient and brighter too)
