The luminous efficiency of a lightbulb is the ratio of luminous flux to electric power input.
(a) What is the luminous efficiency of a 100-W, 1600-lm bulb?
(b) How many 40-W, 60-lm/W fluorescent lamps would be needed to provide an illuminance of 250 lm/m² on a factory floor of area 22 m x 30 m? Assume the lights are 10 m above the floor and that half their flux reaches the floor.

In an older television tube (CRT), electrons are accelerated by thousands of volts through a vacuum. If such a television set is laid on its back, would electrons be able to move upward against the force of gravity? What potential difference, acting over a distance of 2.4 cm, would be needed to balance the downward force of gravity so that an electron would remain stationary? Assume that the electric field is uniform.
