η = 13.8 lm/W. The luminous efficacy of a incandescent lightbulb that produces 830 lumens and consumed a power of 60 W is 13.8 lm/W.

The luminous efficacy of a light source is the relationship between the luminous flux (in lumens) emitted by a light source and the power (in watts). The luminous efficacy of a light source or luminous efficiency measures the part of electrical energy that is used to illuminate and is obtained by dividing the luminous flux emitted by the electrical power consumed. Luminous efficiency is expressed in lumens per watt (lm / W). It is given by the relation:

η = F / P.  Where F is the luminous flux, and P is the power consumed by the light source.

The efficacy of a 60.0 W incandescent lightbulb that produces 830 lm is:

η = 830 lm / 60 W

η = 13.8 lm/W

Answer:

T = 188.5 s, correct is  C

Explanation:

This problem must be worked on using conservation of angular momentum. We define the system as formed by the fan and the paper, as the system is isolated, the moment is conserved

         

initial instant. Before the crash

        L₀ = r m v₀ + I₀ w₀

the angular speed of the fan is zero w₀ = 0

final instant. After the crash

        L_f = I₀ w + m r v

        L₀ = L_f

        m r v₀ = I₀ w + m r v

angular and linear velocity are related

        v = r w

        w = v / r

        m r v₀ = I₀ v / r + m r v

         m r v₀ = (I₀ / r + mr) v

       v = \frac{m}{\frac{I_o}{r}  +mr} \ r v_o

let's calculate

       v = \frac{0.020}{\frac{1.4}{0.6  } + 0.020 \ 0.6  } \ 0.6 \ 4

       v = \frac{0.020}{2.345} \ 2.4

       v = 0.02 m / s

         

To calculate the time of a complete revolution we can use the kinematics relations of uniform motion

        v = x / T

         T = x / v

the distance of a circle with radius r = 0.6 m

         x = 2π r

we substitute

         T = 2π r / v

let's calculate

         T = 2π 0.6/0.02

         T = 188.5 s

reduce

         t = 188.5 s ( 1 min/60 s) = 3.13 min

correct is  C

seropon [69]
The boat is moving at 22 m/s while the man is moving at 23.1 m/s.

That means the man, relative to the boat, is moving at 23.1-22 = 1.1 m/s.

v =d/t, so t = d/v --> t = 3/1.1 = 2.7 s

4. A substance has a density of 0.79 g/cm'. It is soluble in water. List all the possibilities of what it might be How could you
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Given that the density of the unknown substance is 0.79 g/cm3 and is soluble in water, the possible substances it could be are;

i) t-butanol

ii) ethanol

iii) 2-propanol

iv) acetone

However, the actual identity of the unknown substance can be obtained by carrying out a boiling point test. The four substances listed above have different boiling points. Hence the boiling point of the unknown substance ultimately discloses its identity.
