Suppose you left a 100-W light bulb on continuously for one month. If the electricity generation and transmission efficiency is 30%, how much chemical energy (in joules) was wasted at the power plant for this oversight? If the fuel consumption for one meal in Cambodia using a kerosene wick stove is 6 MJ (1 MJ = 1,000,000 joules), how many equivalent meals could be cooked with this wasted energy.

a

b

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The power rating of the bulb is P = 100 W

The duration is t = 1 month = 1 * 30 * 24 = 720 h

The efficiency is

The fuel consumption for one meal is

Generally the energy consumed by the bulb is mathematically represented as

=>

=>

Generally the energy generated at the power plant that was wasted by the bulb is mathematically represented as

=>

=>

Converting this value  to  Joules

Generally the number of means that would be cooked is

=>    

quantum mechanics or quantum physics is physics of very small objects (particles) and physical entities.

quantum physics has some parallels to our macro world and some pretty unique ideas which theoretically and mathematically proven to be true even though we will never be able to access them because of our size.

there are many types of particles: subatomic, elementary etc.

subatomic means they are smaller than atom, elementary means they are at the very basis of everything.

subatomic particles are for eg. protons, neutrons but not electrons.

elementary particles are categorised into 3 groups by what they do.

these 3 groups are quarks, leptons and bosons.

light for example is a particle more precisely a photon a part of leptons.

proton (subatomic particle) is made out of 2 up quarks and 1 down quark each of these has a fractional charge like . (i crazy)

most famous scientist who contributed to this physics are:

the topic itself us understand a lot and will probably be vastly used in the future (quantum computers, understanding the big bang,

we also must not forget quantum effects like:

and there is more. but probably too much for this answer to be consistent due to my average understanding of this topic.

hope this you understand quantum mechanics a little more. i'm not an expert in the topic (so don't be like wth if you are an expert) but i'm very interested in it.

anyways quantum physics is a very hard topic (harder than physics (perhaps)) therefore searching for every information there is about it and learning it is unfortunately impossible (you can only specialise into 1 - 3 things or more (perhaps

have fun and i wish you luck!
