A light bulb receives 100 J of energy electrically. It transfers 30 J of energy to the surroundings by heat. What is the efficiency of the light bulb?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The efficiency of the light bulb is 30%.

Explanation:

Efficiency = output/input × 100%

Data

Energy input = 100J

Energy output = 30J

Efficiency = ?

Efficiency = Energy output/Energy input × 100%

Efficiency = 30J/100J × 100%

Efficiency = 0.3 × 100%

Efficiency = 30%

Therefore the efficiency of the light bulb is 30%.
