Answer:
According to the law of conservation of energy, energy is neither created nor destroyed but changes from one form to another
The energy in the light bulb comes from the movement of electrons through the resistance of the coil of the bulb, therefore, the energy in the bulb is changed from electric energy to heat and light energy as follows;
The friction between the moving electrons and the resistive filament of the light bulb results in the slowing down of the rapidly moving electrons
The part change in the (kinetic) energy of the electrons moving through the filament of the bulb as they slow down is observed as sensible heat which causes the bulb to be hot
Another part of the change in energy is given seen as the light given off by the bulb filament in an incandescent bulb as the filament becomes very hot from the movement of the electrons which causes the bulb to glow (produce light), due to the incandescent characteristics of the filament
