Draw an Energy diagram for the following on graph paper.
1) A lawnmower.
Input: 100J electrical
Output: 70J useful kinetic30J wasted heat
2) A wood fireplace

Which light bulb would you buy and why?
Energy Efficiency
An Energy Diagram can tell us how much useful and wasted energy we will get from a device like a bulb. The more useful energy we can get out of it, the better.
This is called the “energy efficiency”
