Question

Incandescent lights operate at the same wattage as fluorescent lights to give out same amount of light.

a. True
b. False

Answer 1

I think the answer is false.

Answer 2

That's false. Fluorescent lights are more efficient, and so a lower-wattage fluorescent light will produce the same amount of light as a higher wattage incandescent. Less energy is lost in the electric power to light conversion.
