Answer:

1.048 W

Explanation: Given that a lightbulb has an efficiency of 13.1%.How much light energy (not heat energy) is generated by the bulb every second if the bulb has a power pf 8W?

The input power = 8W

The output power = ?

The efficiency = 13.1%

Using the formula below:

Efficiency = (power output / power input) × 100

13.1 = (Power output / 8 ) × 100

0.131 = power output / 8

Cross multiply to make the power output the subject of formula

Power output = 0.131 × 8

Power output = 1.048 W

Therefore, the light energy (not heat energy) generated by the bulb every second is 1.048 W

Which is more reliable—using a manual stop watch or using light gates?<br> Explain.
Kitty [74]
Light gates are more reliable. When using a manual stop watch, it is difficult to stop it at an exact time. A light gate is able to detect when an object passes through a 'gate' with the infrared transmitter and receiver.

Answer:

Thermal conduction is the transfer of internal energy by microscopic collisions of particles and movement of electrons within a body. The colliding particles, which include molecules, atoms and electrons, transfer disorganized microscopic kinetic and potential energy, when joined known as internal energy.
