It really depends on what the bulb is being used for, since efficiency means how much of the output is USEFUL.
If the bulb is being used for light in a dark room, then it produces (8.2% x 21W) = 1.72 joules per second of light energy.
If the bulb is being used to keep a hamster cage or a fish tank warm, then the 8.2% is the useful part, and the light is the other (91.8% x 21W) = 19.28 joules per second.

A balloon filled with helium gas has an average density of Q,-0.41 kg/m'. The density of the air is Qa-1.23 kg/m3. The volume of
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

a) (Qa*g*Vb)-(Qh*Vb*g)=(Qh*Vb*a)\\where \\g=gravity [m/s^2]\\a=acceleration [m/s^2]

b) a = 19.61[m/s^2]

Explanation:

The total mass of the balloon is:

massball=densityheli*volumeheli\\\\massball=0.41 [kg/m^3]*0.048[m^3]\\massball=0.01968[kg]\\\\

The buoyancy force acting on the balloon is:

Fb=densityair*gravity*volumeball\\Fb=1.23[kg/m^3]*9.81[m/s^2]*0.048[m^3]\\Fb=0.579[N]

Now we need to make a free body diagram where we can see the forces that are acting over the balloon and determinate the acceleration.

In the attached image we can see the free body diagram and the equation deducted by Newton's second law
