The light bulb produces 1.15 J energy in 1 second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Efficiency of an electric appliance is defined as the ratio of output power to the input power. In a 100% efficient appliance all of the input power will be converted to output power. In the given question it is given that

input power= 10W

efficiency= 11.5%

(output power)/(input power)=efficiency

output power = input power * efficiency


=10 * (11.5/100)=1.15W

Now we have to calculate the energy produced by the light bulb in 1 second


energy=power * time


=1.15 * 1

=1.15J
