A lamp is 10% efficient.How much electrical energy must be supplied to the lamp each second if it produces 20 J of light energy
k0ka [10]

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 !

An unfortunate astronaut loses his grip during a spacewalk and finds himself floating away from the space station, carrying only
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

15.75 m/s

Explanation:

v = Velocity of the combined mass of astronaut and tools = 1.8 m/s

m_1 = Mass of astronaut = 124 kg

m_2 = Mass of tools = 16 kg

v_1 = Velocity of astronaut = 0

v_2 = Velocity of tools

As linear momentum is conserved

m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 =(m_1 + m_2)v\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{(m_1 + m_2)v-m_1v_1}{m_2}\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{(124+16)\times 1.8-124\times 0}{16}\\\Rightarrow v_2=15.75\ m/s

The velocity of the tools is 15.75 m/s
