How much money does a mixer use if the efficiency is 50% and it wastes 20J of energy ?

Ei = 40J

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Efficiency = 50%

Energy output, Eo = 20 J

To find the amount of energy used by the mixer:

Efficiency = Eo/Ei * 100

Where;

Eo is the output energy.

Ei is the input energy.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

50 = 20/Ei * 100

Cross-multiplying, we have;

50Ei = 2000

Ei = 2000/50

Ei = 40J
