9. How much energy does a 100 W light bulb use in half an hour? If the light bulb converts
yulyashka [42]

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.

Why do you think football players are usually large in size?
kiruha [24]
Football players in the NFL are large in size due to their eating habits since as players they have to work out constantly to stay and shape and eat to gain weight and be strong, so its important for them to be strong against their opponents in gameplay. Football players sometimes take steroids which make their muscles stronger and harder, and also gives them a growth spurt but the effects are worse and makes them sicker, high blood pressure, and even more.
