If you're using the bulb as a source of light, then it's. 14/60 = 23.3% efficient.
If you're using it to heat a bird nest or a hamster cage, then it's. 46/60 = 76.7% efficient !
It just depends on your point of view, and what you consider 'useful' output.

Gre4nikov [31]

the correct choice is

C) an electric current.

as a magnet is turned quickly relative to a coil, the magnetic flux linked with coil varies due to variation of angle of direction of magnetic field with normal to the plane of coil. the coil resist this change of magnetic flux in it by inducing emf in it so as to nullify the variation in magnetic flux. Due to this induced emf , electric current flows through the coil.
