That depends on what you want to use them for.

As sources of light, they are somewhere around 15% - 20% efficient.

As heaters, they are somewhere around 80% - 85% efficient.

Answer:

T

beacuse:

Energy can be transferred from one object to another by doing work. ... When work is done, energy is transferred from the agent to the object, which results in a change in the object's motion (more specifically, a change in the object's kinetic energy).

Feng and Isaac are riding on a merry-ground. Feng rides on a horse at the outer rim of the circular platform, twice as far from
kogti [31]

Answer: The question is incomplete or missing details. here is the remaining part of the question ;

1. impossible to determine

2. half of Isaac’s

3. the same as Isaac’s

4. twice Isaac’s

The angular speed of feng will be the same as that of Isaac. Hence the answer is option 3

Explanation:

Since we have been told that both feng and isaac are riding on a merry go round i.e in a circular motion, irrespective of how fast one ride above the other, the angular speed will be constant since they are riding on a merry go round, as such both feng and isaac will maintain equal angular speed, hence the angular speed of feng will be the same as that of Isaac.

A baseball thrown by a pitcher is hit by a batter. At the moment when the ball hits the bat, the force exerted on the bat by the
Slav-nsk [51]

Newton's Laws of motion describe the motion of an object based on the applied force

The correct option that gives the relationships between the forces is the the option;

\underline{F_{ball}}<u> on bat</u> = \underline{F_{bat}}<u> on ball</u>

<em>(Either option A or B without the minus symbol before </em>F_{bat}<em>, likely typographical error)</em>

<em />

Reason:

Force exerted on the bat by the ball = F_{ball}

Force exerted on the ball by the bat = F_{bat}

Given that the batter hits the ball with the bat, the force exerted by the bat on the ball, F_{bat}, is reacted to by the force of the ball acting on the bat, F_{ball}

According to Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite. Therefore, at the moment when the ball hits the bat, we have;

\underline{F_{ball}}<u> on bat</u> = \underline{F_{bat}}<u> on ball</u>

<em>Where the force of the bat is high, the ball is accelerated to travel at high speed</em>

Radiation: Getting sunburnt on a beach.
- The sun’s radiation (no direct contact) is what causes the skin to burn.
Radiation: Microwave cooking food
- Microwaves use radiation to heat the food inside of it; between radio waves and infrared radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum
Conduction: Touching a hot car seat in the summer
- Conduction is the transfer of heat by direct contact (hand to seat).
Conduction: Burning yourself with a curling iron (Similar to above; direct contact).

Convection: An ocean breeze
- Convection near coastlines cause the transfer of energy; water warms and cools slower than land.
Conduction: Sliding down a hot metal slide in august
- You are in direct contact with the slide, which is hot due to the temperature.
Convection: Water in a boiling pot of macaroni
- The water, a liquid, is being heated by molecular motion.
Convection: Currents deep within the earth that cause tectonic plates to move
- Convection currents drive the movement of tectonic plates in the mantle, which is fluid/molten. The currents circulate under the asthenosphere.
