Question 45

At a venue, an electric call bell is used to alert staff by sound. In a test, 1470 J of the energy supplied to the bell is transferred to thermal stores and the rest is transferred by sound.

An electric scooter accelerates from rest. In its test, 190 J is transferred to thermal stores and 10 J is transferred by sound. The rest is transferred to the kinetic energy store of the scooter and its rider.

DeviceTotal energy supplied
call bell1.5 kJ
electric scooter1.0 kJ

Calculate the efficiency of each device.
