Explain why solar energy is considered an inexhaustible source of energy

Physics
1 answer:
Debora [2.8K]3 years ago
6 0

-- The amount of energy radiated by the sun is not affected at all by how much
of it we use or don't use.

-- The sun is not expected to quit shining on us, or to change its rate of energy
output, at any time within the next several many human lifetimes.

Solar energy is going to keep arriving here, continuously, at the same rate,
free of charge, for a long long time, whether we feel like using it or not.  It's
the closest thing to manna from heaven that has been seen around here for
thousands of years.

what is the difference in the charges on a balloon rubbed in your hair and a glass  rod rubbed with silk? why?
lbvjy [14]
The balloon steals electrons from your hair, leaving the hair positively charged, and the balloon negatively charged. It causes the hair to be apart from each other, because they have the same charge. Glass has a weaker hold on electrons, and silk absorbs the lost electrons.

The joule and the kilowatt-hour are both units of energy. 15 kw · h is equivalent to how many joules? answer in units of j.
choli [55]

The solution for the problem is:

1 Watt = 1 Joule per second 
1 Watt*second = 1 Joule 

a Kilowatt is 1,000 Watts 
an hour is 60 seconds times 60 minutes or 3,600 seconds 
a Kilowatt * hour is 1,000 Watts in 3,600 seconds 

15 W*h = 15,000 Watt*hour = 15,000 Watt * 3,600 seconds = 54,000,000 Watt*second 

54,000,000 Watt*second = ? Joules 
54,000,000 Joules / second = 54,000,000 Watts

8a. What is the equivalent resistance of the following circuit?
ollegr [7]

Answer: Take your pick

Explanation:

if they are all in parallel 1 /(1/100 + 1/300 + 1/50) = 30 Ω

if 50 is in parallel with 2 in series 1 / (1/(100 + 300) + 1/50) = 44.444...Ω

if 100 is in parallel with 2 in series 1 / (1/(50 + 300) + 1/100) = 77.777...Ω

if 300 is in parallel with 2 in series 1 / (1/(100 + 50) + 1/300) = 100 Ω

If 50 is in series with 2 in parallel 50 + 1/(1/100 + 1/300) = 125 Ω

If 100 is in series with 2 in parallel 100 + 1/(1/50 + 1/300) = 142.857...Ω

If 300 is in series with 2 in parallel 300 + 1/(1/50 + 1/100) = 333.333...Ω

If they are all in series 100 + 300 + 50 = 450 Ω

Balanced forces can change an<br> object's direction.<br> A. True<br> B. False
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Balanced forces result in a net force of 0N. This means no direction or acceleration change will be applied to the object. A torque may be applied, but with no other external forces, the object will not move.
