An incandescent bulb becomes hotter than a fluorescent bulb when turned on because in a regular incandescent bulb, there is tungsten wire where electricity is converts into heat. A regular incandescent light bulb requires 4 times more energy than a fluorescent bulb in order to produce the same amount of light. The conversion is such that for a 75-watt bulb, temperature get raised to approximately 2000 K. For such a high temperature, the radiating energy from the wire have some visible light. In such bulbs, 90% of the electricity get consumed in producing heat and only 10% produces light thus, they are not much efficient source of light.
On the other hand, fluorescent bulbs produce light with less amount of heat. In them, 40% of electricity is consumed in producing light and 60% in heat which is very less as compared to heat produced by a incandescent bulb. This is because when it get turned on, mercury atoms inside the bulb collides with electrons and produce UV light which is then converted into visible light using thin layer of phosphor power present inside the bulb. This produces low amount of heat thus, the bulb stays cooler, the bigger size of bulb also helps in dispersing heat.
Therefore, a fluorescent light bulb is not as hot as an incandescent light bulb.
Answer to this is "the phosphate bonds that are present in the nucleotide triphosphate serves as the substrates" in the process of transcription.
Transcription is the process in which DNA is transformed into RNA with the help of an enzyme known as RNA-polymerase. RNA and DNA are the nucleic acids which are formed by linking the nucleotides together.
Answer:
Explanation:
There are two heat transfers involved: the heat lost by the metal block and the heat gained by the water.
According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy can neither be destroyed nor created, so the sum of these terms must be zero.
Let the metal be Component 1 and the water be Component 2.
Data:
For the metal:
For the water:
