The energy used by the light bulb in half an hour is 180000 J and the amount of thermal energy generated is 158400 J.

What is Energy?

Energy is the ability or the capacity to do work.

To calculate the energy of the light bulb we use the formula below

Formula:

  • E = Pt.......... Equation 1

Where:

  • E = Energy used by the bulb in a half-hour
  • P = Power of the bulb
  • t = Time

Given:

  • P = 100 W
  • t = 1/2 hour = 30 minutes = (30×60) = 1800 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • E = (100×1800)
  • E = 180000 J

  • If the light converts 12% of electric energy to light energy, then  88% of the energy is used to generate thermal energy

Therefore,

  • Thermal energy = (180000×88/100) = 158400 J

Hence, the energy used by the light bulb in half an hour is 180000 J and the amount of thermal energy generated is 158400 J.

A 1,200 kg car accelerates at 3 m/s2. What net force is the car experiencing during thisacceleration?0 3600 NO 2000 N0 2400 NOON
Mama L [17]

m = mass = 1,200 kg

A = acceleration = 3 m/s^2

Apply Newton's second law:

Force = mass x acceleration

F = 1,200 x 3 =3600 N

The net force the car experiences is 3600 N
