Disassembled Lamp,

I disassembled a desk lamp to look at all the component that was designed to make it function;

• Base- used to hold up the lamp and also hide all of the wiring, concrete and screws.
• concrete base- used to help the light stand up and stay balanced if there wasn't concrete in the base then the lamp would fall over as it would be top heavy.
• Bendable neck- Is used to have the light stand up higher, carry the cord/electricity to the light bulb and it is also bendable so you can adjust the angle the light shines at.   
• Plug- like any other plug; gets plugged it the wall the the source of were the power comes from.
• switch- stops or completes the electrical circuit that results in tuning the light on and off.
• socket- where the bulb it inserted and hold the bulb in place. it also transfers the current into the light bulb.
• bulb- it where the light comes out of. 
• lamp shade- is used to stop light shining off into unwanted parts of the surrounding, narrows and selects where light is directed. 
• screws- holds everything together. used on the base and on the lamp shade.
