Conservation of Energy Question:
Example: A battery releases 100 J of energy to a lamp. The lamp releases 80 J of energy as light but it also releases heat energy. How much heat energy is released? Answer=20 J ( If he total energy input is 100 and 80 is the output as light, that means that 20 J is left as heat 100 J-80 J=20 J ).
Question. A battery releases 200 J of energy to a lamp. the energy is converted to heat and light. 50 J is given out as heat. How much is released as Light?
100 J
150 J
200 J
250 J

For work to be done on an object,
some force need only be exerted on the object.
the object must move some distance as a result of a force.
the object must move, whether or not a force is exerted on it.
the object must not move.
A light plastic cart and a heavy steel cart are both pushed with the same force for a distance of 1.0 m, starting from rest. After the force is removed, the kinetic energy of the light plastic cart is ________ that of the heavy steel cart.
greater than
equal to
less than
can't say unless we know how big the force is
