An incandescent bulb becomes hotter than a fluorescent bulb when turned on because in a regular incandescent bulb, there is tungsten wire where electricity is converts into heat. A regular incandescent light bulb requires 4 times more energy than a fluorescent bulb in order to produce the same amount of light. The conversion is such that for a 75-watt bulb, temperature get raised to approximately 2000 K. For such a high temperature, the radiating energy from the wire have some visible light. In such bulbs, 90% of the electricity get consumed in producing heat and only 10% produces light thus, they are not much efficient source of light.
On the other hand, fluorescent bulbs produce light with less amount of heat. In them, 40% of electricity is consumed in producing light and 60% in heat which is very less as compared to heat produced by a incandescent bulb. This is because when it get turned on, mercury atoms inside the bulb collides with electrons and produce UV light which is then converted into visible light using thin layer of phosphor power present inside the bulb. This produces low amount of heat thus, the bulb stays cooler, the bigger size of bulb also helps in dispersing heat.
Therefore, a fluorescent light bulb is not as hot as an incandescent light bulb.
Explanation:
Reaction equation showing alpha decay in Uranium-238 is as follows.
It is known that an alpha particle is basically a helium nucleus and it contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons.
Symbol of an alpha particle is 
.
As atomic mass or weight is the sum of total number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.
Hence, the atomic weight of the alpha particle is (2 + 2) = 4.
