If it produces 20J of light energy in a second, then that 20J is the 10% of the supply that becomes useful output.
20 J/s = 10% of Supply
20 J/s = (0.1) x (Supply)
Divide each side by 0.1:
Supply = (20 J/s) / (0.1)
<em>Supply = 200 J/s </em>(200 watts)

Here's something to think about: What could you do to make the lamp more efficient ? Answer: Use it for a heater !
If you use it for a heater, then the HEAT is the 'useful' part, and the light is the part that you really don't care about. Suddenly ... bada-boom ... the lamp is 90% efficient !
Answer:
d = 380 feet
Explanation:
Height of man = perpendicular= 130 feet
Angle of depression = ∅ = 70 °
distance to bus stop from man = hypotenuse = d = 130 sec∅
As sec ∅ = 1 / cos∅
so d = 130 sec∅ or d = 130 / cos∅
d = 130 / cos(70°)
d = 380 feet
