A circuit in a home provides power to a light fixture. The homeowners want to use a compact fluorescent bulb instead of an incandescent bulb. Compact fluorescent bulbs can produce as much light as incandescent bulbs but with less energy. How is this possible?(1 point) Responses Fluorescent bulbs have been designed to put out more energy than they receive. Fluorescent bulbs have been designed to put out more energy than they receive.

The correct response is: Incandescent bulbs produce other forms of energy, too, including heat.
Compact fluorescent bulbs (CFLs) are more energy-efficient than incandescent bulbs because they convert a greater portion of the electrical energy they consume into visible light rather than heat. Incandescent bulbs waste a significant amount of energy as heat, which is why they require more energy to produce the same amount of light as CFLs.
