Interesting. My question is, does the magnetic field produced by the microwave actually change and that's the thing inducing the current?
or is it because the field that goes through the loop in the bulb changes? I mean, the loop's moving, so the field that goes through it is not constant. And that also induces current...
Anyway, in short, is the field created by the microwave a changing field? Or is this caused purely by the motion of the bulb?
Hm, perhaps, if the radiation field was moving in a loop through/around the fillament. I think what's happening is just the radio waves excite the electrons in the fillament into higher orbits, then they relase photons as heat, light, and some electron-spittin' for the hell of it.
I'm afraid you are over-thinking this one. It has nothing to do with magnetic currents lighting the light bulb. Have you ever put aluminum foil in a microwave? Or perhaps a grape (sliced laterally 90% of the way through). If you haven't - you get sparks. The tungsten filament in the lightbulb is doing the same thing when the electrons excite the metal filament. It's just sparking (more or less) in a controlled fashion inside the vacuum of the bulb.
Congrats! You may have something here. Pretend that the light bulb is actually a photon engine. Now ask yourself what have you tapped into? You've found a way to power a photon matrix. Or a controlled photon burst using microwaves. That is cool! You might be able to power a crude laser like that if you set it up right.
Lol you sir are an idiot, the heat from the microwaves excites the Argon in the bulb lighting the filament, and the water keeps the bulb from exploding.

thats stupid cuase if something happens and that bulb explodes say bye bye to your house and maybe your neighbours and i'd I would see u in the sreets in a cardboard box
"That's stupid" ... I'm sorry, but you should be referring to yourself. If the bulb explodes it will not even hurt the microwave. And if it DID destroy my house and my neighbor's house, don't you think I'd have a little trouble surviving in order to live in a cardboard box?
But wouldn't he still have a job? Plus, keep in mind that the bulb did not explode.
Quoting nwogoldberg99:
"The changing magnetic field induces a current, causing the bulb to light up. It doesn't explode because it is in a glass of water which absorbs a lot of the microwaves, keep the bulb from getting too hot."
So there you have it. But in theory, you have a semi valid point. It's not a smart idea to put a lightbulb in a microwave simply out of curiosity.

I got a vid of a bulb blowing up on my chan ;)
