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.

Which elements will bond ionically with barium such that the formula would be written as BaX2? A) Nitrogen, chlorine, and sodium
erma4kov [3.2K]

The answer would be:

B. Chlorine, iodine and Fluorine

Barium has 2 valence electrons. To satisfy the BaX₂ , this would mean that Barium will need to give one of each of its electrons. The elements that need 1 electron would be those that have 7 valence electrons to complete the octet. These elements would fall in group 7 or halogens. Chlorine, iodine and fluorine are all in Group 7, so this would be the best choice.

All of the outer planets are much larger than the inner planets true or false
Rama09 [41]
That statement is false because yes Jupiter and Saturn are large, however, planets like Uranus and Neptune are quite small if not smaller than some of the inner planets.

You have a string with a mass of 0.0135 kg. You stretch the string with a force of 8.29 N, giving it a length of 1.83 m. Then yo
Sphinxa [80]

The wavelength of the standing wave at fourth harmonic is; λ = 0.985 m and the frequency of the wave at the calculated wavelength is; f = 36.84 Hz

Given Conditions:

mass of string; m = 0.0133 kg

Force on the string; F = 8.89 N

Length of string; L = 1.97 m

1. To find the wavelength at the fourth normal node.

At the fourth harmonic, there will be 2 nodes.

Thus, the wavelength will be;

λ = L/2

λ = 1.97/2

λ = 0.985 m

2. To find the velocity of the wave from the formula;

v = √(F/(m/L)

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

v = √(8.89/(0.0133/1.97)

v = 36.2876 m/s

Now, formula for frequency here is;

f = v/λ

f = 36.2876/0.985

f = 36.84 Hz
