The old style (incandescent) light bulb converts more energy
into heat than it does into light. If you're using it mainly as a
source of light, then it's a bummer, and its efficiency is very low.
BUT ... if you're using an incandescent light bulb as a heater, then
its efficiency is much better. It all depends on your point of view.
Answer:
38 cm from q1(right)
Explanation:
Given, q1 = 3q2 , r = 60cm = 0.6 m
Let that point be situated at a distance of 'x' m from q1.
Electric field must be same from both sides to be in equilibrium(where EF is 0).
=> k q1/x² = k q2/(0.6 - x)²
=> q1(0.6 - x)² = q2(x)²
=> 3q2(0.6 - x)² = q2(x)²
=> 3(0.6 - x)² = x²
=> √3(0.6 - x) = ± x
=> 0.6√3 = x(1 + √3)
=> 1.03/2.73 = x
≈ 0.38 m = 38 cm = x
