Depending on the length, between 30 and 60 Watts of power for fluorescents and around 10 Watts for LED T8's

Heat is negligible for the LEDs, and almost negligible for Fluorescents

Give example of power in physics?

An example of power in physics is when a light bulb converts electrical energy into light and heat. The power of the light bulb is determined by the rate at which it converts energy, measured in watts. This power output determines how bright the light will be or how much heat is generated.


Why ther is a heat surounding of the engine?

Combustion engines make power by burning fuel. Much of that energy is lost to heat.


What are the advantages of led light units compared to tungsten light units?

They use less power and don't give off so much heat.


What type of energy is lost in a light bulb car and power plant?

In a light bulb, car, and power plant, a significant amount of energy is lost as heat due to inefficiencies in the conversion processes. In light bulbs, especially incandescent ones, much of the electrical energy is emitted as heat rather than light. In cars, energy from fuel combustion is lost as heat in the engine and exhaust. Similarly, in power plants, energy losses occur during fuel combustion, electricity generation, and transmission, primarily as heat.


What explains why the sun the only star from which earth receives much heat and light?

The sun is the only star that is close enough to Earth to provide significant heat and light because of its proximity. Other stars are much farther away, and their light does not reach us with the same intensity. Additionally, the unique composition and size of the sun make it a suitable source of heat and light for Earth.


What is the Electrical power for a lightbulb?

The power rating for a light bulb (like "40 W") tells how much electrical power the light bulb uses. All of the power used by the bulb is either converted into light or heat. In an incandescent bulb, most of the energy becomes heat. In a fluorescent bulb, more of it becomes light.


How much energy will a 100w light bulb convert to light and heat if it is left burning for 1hour?

Power = Energy/time 100W=Energy/360 Seconds Energy = 100/360 Energy ≈ 0.27 Joules


How much difference does the color of a car make to its inside temperature on a sunny day?

It can make quite a difference. A dark object will absorb solar heat much faster than a light one.


What explains why sun is the only star fro which earth receives much heat and light?

The Sun is the closest star to Earth, which is why we receive a significant amount of heat and light from it. Other stars are much farther away and their radiation does not reach us in the same way. Additionally, the Sun's composition and size make it capable of sustained fusion reactions that generate heat and light.


Can you make light from heat?

Yes, any body with a temperature emits EM radiation which is not in the visible spectrum, but if you heat too much, you can get some visible EM radiation. it happens every time you heat a peice of iron and it glows red hot, or when you heat the tungsten filament inside a light bulb and it lights your room.


Why should you change away form using incandescent light bulb?

There are other forms of artificial light devices that consume much less power, and generate less heat, such as Halogen, LED, and so forth.


Why is a resistor heated by a ac current?

A resistor is heated by any power source, AC or DC. Voltage is joules per coulomb. Current is coulombs per second. Voltage times current is work in watts or joules per second. This is heat transfer, and is manifest by the resistor getting warm. Actually, any device that dissipates power will get warm. Some of the heat energy is consumed in doing other work, such as in producing light in a light bulb, but much of it also produces heat, also such as in producing heat in a light bulb.
