Consider an incandescent bulb and a CFL (compact fluorescent

Consider an incandescent bulb and a CFL (compact fluorescent light), which are both sources of white light. Describe how light is made by each of these objects. As part of your explanation, make sure you discuss (1) the underlying mechanism for creating the light (2) whether it will make a continuous or discrete spectrum of light, and (3) whether it is best described by a wave model or a photon model.
