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.

lisabon 2012 [21]

(B) 2.25cm

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

At 40 hours, the height of the bamboo plant is 2.1cm

At 50 hours, the height of the bamboo plant is 2.4cm

Height of the bamboo plant after 45 hours = ?

The difference in length from 40 to 50 hours = 2.4 - 2.1cm

                                                                      = 0.3 cm

Mean of 40 and 50 is 45.

Thus,

At 45 hours, the height will increase by 0.3/2

                                                         = 0.15 cm

Height at 45 hour = 2.1 + 0.15cm

                           = 2.25cm

Therefore, the height of the plant after 45 hours is 2.25cm

Problem 8 I estimate that the Gauss gun (a solenoid) is wound with 500 turns over a distance of 15cm with an average radius of 1
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Energy stored, U = 66.6 J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Number of turns in the solenoid, n = 500

Radius of solenoid, r = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m

Distance, d = 15 cm = 0.15 m

Let U is the energy stored in the solenoid. Its formula is given by :

U=\dfrac{1}{2}LI^2

L is the self inductance of the solenoid

L=\mu_o N^2A d

N is the no of turns per unit length

L=\mu_o (n/d)^2A d

L=\dfrac{4\pi\cdot10^{-7}\cdot500^{2}\cdot\pi\cdot\left(0.015\right)^{2}}{0.15}

L = 0.00148 Henry

U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.00148\times 300^2

U = 66.6 J

Out of given options, the correct option for the energy stored in the solenoid is 70 J. So, the correct option is (a) "70 J".
