200 J of energy is wasted by the hair dryer.

Steps

  • The hairdryer is provided with 1500 J of electrical energy per second
  • Of this 1500 J, 1300 J of energy is actually used and converted to useful thermal energy per second
  • The remaining energy, 1500 - 1300 = 200 J is dissipated

Dissipated energy

  • The energy that is not efficiently transported or changed is wasted energy.
  • We cannot create or destroy energy.
  • An employable type of energy is created through transformation.
  • Only a portion of energy that is changed or transferred can be done so in a way that is helpful.

Thus, 200 J of energy is wasted by the hair dryer.

Some of these plants and animals are:

  1. Sea weeds: People might think that they do not consume sea weeds but it is actually present in most of our daily use products like toothpaste, ice creams and even in some automobiles. Many people from the world consume sea weeds as food. Hence, they are being raised in maricultures.
  2. Shrimps: Shrimps are favourite sea food among many people belonging to different areas. Hence, there population is declining due to which they need to be raised artificially.
  3. Salmon: The salmon is a kind of fish common to almost every nation. Hence, to meet the demands of people they need to be produced in maricultures.
