Analyze: To gauge the efficiency of a light bulb, it is also important to consider how much light it produces. Light intensity i

s measured in lumens (lm). A lumen is equal to the light produced by a single candle. The lumens produced by each type of light are listed below. To compare the efficiency of each bulb, calculate how many lumens each bulb produces per watt. To do this, divide the number of lumens by the wattage for each lamp. Include all units. Lamp Lumens (lm) Wattage (W) Lumens per watt (lm/W) Incandescent 800 lm 60W 13.3 Im/W Halogen 6,000 lm 300W 20 Im/W Fluorescent 2,000 lm 30W 66.7 Im/W A. Which lamp produces light most efficiently

Answer:

The Fluorescent lamp is most efficient

Explanation:

66.7 lumens/watt

Fluorescent was always the most efficient vs. incandescent or halogen gas envelope

This question needs some updating as LED lamps now beat fluorescents in life expectancy and lumens/watt.

What is thermal physics​
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Thermal physics is the combined study of thermodynamics, statistical mechanics, and kinetic theory of gases. This umbrella-subject is typically designed for physics students and functions to provide a general introduction to each of three core heat-related subjects. Other authors, however, define thermal physics loosely as a summation of only thermodynamics and statistical mechanics.

2. A 3 kg ball is thrown downward at 4 m/s from a height of 1.5 m. a. What is the kinetic energy of the ball as it leaves the th
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

a) 24 J

b) Gravitational Force

c) 45 J

d) 0

e) 6.782m/s

Explanation:

a) m = 3kg

v = 4m/s

h = 1.5m

KE = ?

0.5 * 3 * 16 = 24J

b) Gravitational force

c) F = ma = 3 * 10 = 30N

Work done = Force * distance = 30 * 1.5 = 45J

d) Final Kinetic Energy of the ball is zero because the ball eventually stops moving

e) velocity of ball as it strikes the ground = v

v^{2} - u^{2} = 2as where

v is the velocity as it strikes the ground

u is the initial velocity

a is acceleration

s is the distance

Now since the ball is thrown downwards, a is positive because the velocity of the ball is increasing as the gravitational force acts on it

u = 4m/s

a = 10

s = 1.5

=>  v = \sqrt{2as + u^{2} }

= \sqrt{(2*10*1.5) + 16}

= \sqrt{46} = 6.782m/s

Define scalar quantity​
joja [24]

Answer:

Scalar quantities are physical quantities which have a magnitude and direction.

e.g. in 5 km, 5 is the magnitude(number) and km is the unit.

some scalar quantities are mass, length, distance, speed, power, energy, temperature etc.
