    In an electric bulb is different In an electric bulb two metallic wires are attached to the two terminals at the bottom of the metal cap. These wires act as two terminals. The two terminals do not touch each other. The part of the bulb that glows is the filament, which is a thin spring like wire attached to the two metal wires inside the glass bulb. Why do bulbs and celss have two terminals?
