Answer:
"13.48 Kwhr" is the right solution.
Explanation:
The given values are:
Average rate of heat energy,
= 0.063 W/m²
Diameter,
= 8m
Efficiency of conversion,
= 50%
Now,
The area of hotspot will be:
⇒ 
On substituting the values, we get
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Total heat generation rate will be:
⇒ 


hence,
The electricity generation capacity will be:
⇒ 
On substituting the values, we get
⇒ 
⇒ 
On converting into Kwhr, we get
⇒ 
Well the US doesn't naturally have a lot of fossil fuels so we rely on other countries who do have fossil fuels. So if we aren't that friendly with Saudia Arabia (they have a bunch of oil) then they can hike up the prices or cut us off from their oil supply completely which would cripple the US severly. So with that being said, we NEED other countries, and the big question is when will they not NEED us. At any point in which they feel that they don't need us they can just cut us off, which would be bad.
Hope that helps :)
I think the correct answer is going to be A
Answer:
i'm sorry i'm not a physics student
Given:
Lens.........diameter ...fl#
eyepiece...2cm............5
objective...40cm........15
focal length of eyepiece = 2*5 = 10cm
focal length of objective = 40*15 = 600cm
magnification = FL obj / FL eyp = 600/10 = 60x
