I need help on this simple but very confusing assignment. Nairalander pls what is the difference between a Lamp and a bulb. I'm not that dumb cos I have attempt it and the lecturer says it's not it. I said Lamp consist of one or more bulb(s), reflector or shade, lamp casing or housing, switch or regulator while a bulb is a component of a lamp and it can be used independently to illuminate. I gave example like table lamps reading lamps, head lamps as examples of lamps and halogen bulb, fluorescent bulb etc as examples of bulb. But he is not convince enough. Why is a lamp holder holding a bulb according to my examples?
