Approximately how much electrical energy does a 5-W light bulb convert to radiant or thermal energy in one hour

Physics
1 answer:
ch4aika [34]4 years ago
8 0

answer

18000 J

explanation

the lightbulb dissipates 5W of power

P = ΔE / Δt

rearrange to solve for energy

ΔE = PΔt

P = 5W

t =  1 hour = 60 minutes = 3600 seconds

ΔE = 5 * 3600

ΔE = 18000 J

Neko [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

Energy of radiation in eV = 1237.5/280 = 4.42 eV.

Work function = 2.65 eV.

Maximum kinetic energy = 4.42 - 2.65 = 1.77 eV.

When sound is created it travels to the car through a
Rasek [7]

A sound wave is a longitudinal wave caused by vibrations and carried through a substance. The particles of the substance, such as air particles, vibrate back and forth along the path that the sound waves travel. Sound is transmitted through the vibrations and collisions of the particles.

This could maybe help you with your answer.

A 290-kg flatcar 25 m long is moving with a speed of 7.0 m/s along horizontal frictionless rails. A 80-kg worker starts walking
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Explanation:

Car is 25 m long . worker moves at speed 3.0 m/s with respect to the car

Time taken to reach the other end

= 25 / 3 = 8.333 s

Displacement of flatcar during this period

= 7 x 8.333

= 58.33 m
