A) 15 W/m2
B) 4.8 W/m2
C) 2.4 W/m2
D) 0.60 W/m2
E) 1.2 W/m2

Answer 1

Answer:

a

Explanation:

A 60-W light bulb emits spherical electromagnetic waves uniformly in all directions. If 50% of the power input to such a light bulb is emitted as electromagnetic radiation, what is the radiation intensity at a distance of 2.00 m from the light bulb    

so i did 60(50%)=30÷2=15
