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

A wave transfers:<br> Water<br> particles<br> energy<br> matter
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Particles in a water wave exchange kinetic energy for potential energy. When particles in water become part of a wave, they start to move up or down. This means that kinetic energy (energy of movement) has been transferred to them

A person pushes a 10 kg box from rest and accelerates it to a speed of 4 m/s with a constant force. If the box is pushed for a t
lutik1710 [3]

The box is accelerated from rest to 4 m/s in a matter of 2.5 s, so its acceleration <em>a</em> is such that

4 m/s = <em>a</em> (2.5 s)   →   <em>a</em> = (4 m/s) / (2.5 s) = 1.6 m/s²

Then the force applied to the box has a magnitude <em>F</em> such that

<em>F</em> = (10 kg) (1.6 m/s²) = 16 N

A fly travels along the x-axis. His starting point is x = 16 m and his ending point 15x = - 25 m. His flight lasts 4.0 seconds H
gogolik [260]

Explanation:

Starting position at x  = 16m

Ending position at x  = -25m

Time of flight  = 4s

Unknown:

Distance flown  = ?

Displacement  = ?

Speed  = ?

Velocity  = ?

Solution:

To find the distance flown, we should understand that the body is moving on the x - plane;  

  So distance  = 16 + 25  = 41m

Displacement is 41m to the left or -x axis

Speed is the distance divided by the time taken;

      Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}   = \frac{41}{4}   = 10.25m/s

Velocity is 10.25m/s along -x axis

The beginning development of a star is marked by a supernova explosion, with the gases present in the nebula being forced
GenaCL600 [577]

The beginning development of a star is marked by a supernova explosion, with the gases present in the nebula being forced to scatter. As the star shrinks, radiation of the surface increases and create pressure on the outside shell to push it away and forming a planetary nebula or white dwarf.
