A rotating space heater used 1,400 joules of energy while heating a room. Of that total, 896 joules produced thermal energy, 181 joules produced kinetic energy, 203 joules produced light energy, and 120 joules produced sound energy. What is the space heater’s efficiency?

1 answer

The space heater's efficiency is 64.0%. (896 joules / 1400 joules = 0.64)
