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.

Your friend asks you for a glass of water and you bring her 5 milliliters of water. Is this more or less than what she was proba
Eddi Din [679]
Probably not what you were expecting... the average bottle of water is 24 ounces. 5 milliliters is about the amount of water in a spoon. Hope this helps!!!

You push very hard on a heavy desk, trying to move it. You do work on the desk:
frozen [14]

Answer:

(C) Only if it starts moving

Explanation:

We know that work done is given by

W=F.d=Fdcos\Theta

So there are two case in which work done is zero

First case is that when force and displacement are perpendicular to each other

And other case is that when there is no displacement

So for work to be done there must have displacement, if there is no displacement then there is no work done

So option (c) will be the correct option

A box has the dimensions of 50 cm × 30 cm × 15 cm, weighs 150 N, and is to be
nadezda [96]

The surface can only withstand a pressure Face A (50cm × 30cm) and Face C (50cm × 15cm) as the surface can only withstand a pressure of 0.25 N/cm³.

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The physical force used to apply pressure to an object is defined as such. Per square inch of an object, a force is applied perpendicularly to its surface. For pressure, the fundamental formula is F/A. (Force per unit area). The Pascal is the unit of pressure (Pa).

The four different types of pressure are absolute, atmospheric, differential, and gauge pressure. Have you ever noticed that when you use a straw to drink something, the air actually gets suked out? In reality, you're applying "Pressure" as you drink the beverage.

A box has the dimensions of 50 cm × 30 cm × 15 cm

Let each face be A, B and C

The weight of the box = 150 N

Formula for pressure is

P = F/A

To find out which face of the box can withstand a pressure of 0.25 N/cm

we need find the area of each face and find its pleasure

Face A = 50 cm × 30 cm

Area A = l × b

            = 50 × 30

            = 1500 cm²

Pressure A = 150/1500

                  = 0.1 N/cm³

                    0.25 > 0.1

The surface can definitively withstand the pressure of Face A

Face B = 30 cm × 15 cm

Area A = l × b

            = 30 × 15

            = 450 cm²

Pressure A = 150/450

                  = 0.3 N/cm³

                    0.25 < 0.3

The surface could not withstand the pressure of Face B

Face C = 50 cm × 15 cm

Area A = l × b

            = 50 × 15

            = 750 cm²

Pressure A = 150/750

                  = 0.2 N/cm³

                    0.25 > 0.2

The surface can definitively withstand the pressure of Face C

Thus, The surface can only withstand a pressure Face A (50cm × 30cm) and Face C (50cm × 15cm) as the surface can only withstand a pressure of 0.25 N/cm³.
