Problems with solar energy include _____.

Physics
2 answers:

4 0
First choice:  the inability of current technology to capture
large amounts of the Sun's energy

Well, it's true that large amounts of it get away ... our 'efficiency' at capturing it is still rather low.  But the amount of free energy we're able to capture is still huge and significant, so this isn't really a major problem.

Second choice:  the inability of current technology to store
captured solar energy

No.  We're pretty good at building batteries to store small amounts, or raising water to store large amounts.  Storage could be better and cheaper than it is, but we can store huge amounts of captured solar energy right now, so this isn't a major problem either.

Third choice:  inconsistencies in the availability of the resource

I think this is it.  If we come to depend on solar energy, then we're
expectedly out of luck at night, and we may unexpectedly be out
of luck during long periods of overcast skies.

Fourth choice:  lack of demand for solar energy

If there is a lack of demand, it's purely a result of willful manipulation
of the market by those whose interests are hurt by solar energy.

What is the photosynthes?
Westkost [7]
<em>It is the process in which green plants make their food through a green pigment known as Chlorophyll by using sunlight, Carbon-dioxide and water</em>.  <em>The result comes out with the formation of Oxygen as a byproduct. But in night they also respire like animals and photosynthesis does not occur. Photo means light and synthesis means manufacture.</em>

the measure of each exterior angle of a regular pentagon is ___ the measure of each exterior angle of a regular nonagon
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

(a) 72°

(b) 40°

Explanation:

PENTAGON

First, we calculate the total angles in a Pentagon using:

180(n - 2)

Where n = number of sides of the polygon, in this case, 5.

Hence, the total angle in a polygon is

180(5 - 2) = 180 * 3 = 540°

Therefore, each angle will be:

540°/5 = 108°

Because the interior angle and exterior angle form a straight line (180°), the exterior angle of a regular pentagon will be:

180 - 108 = 72°

The exterior angle of a regular Pentagon is 72°

NONAGON

First, we calculate the total angles in a Nonagon using:

180(n - 2)

Where n = number of sides of the polygon, in this case, 9.

Hence, the total angle in a polygon is

180(9 - 2) = 180 * 7 = 1260°

Therefore, each angle will be:

1260°/9 = 140°

Because the interior angle and exterior angle form a straight line (180°), the exterior angle of a regular nonagon will be:

180 - 140 = 40°

The exterior angle of a regular Nonagon is 40°

two barges full of salted toad guts have a collision. the red barge has a mass of 150000kg and is traveling northwest at 0.25m/s
solniwko [45]

The final velocity of the red barge in the collision elastic is 0.311 m/s when it collides with blue barge pf mass 1000000 kg.

Final velocity(v3)  of the red barge is calculated by following formula

m1×v1+ m2×v2= (m1+m2)v3

Substituting the value of m1= 150000 kg, v1= 0.25 m/s, m2= 1000000 kg, v2= 0.32 m/s

150000 × 0.25+ 1000000×0.32= (150000+1000000)×v3

37500+ 320000= 1150000×v3

357500= 1150000×v3

v3= 0.311 m/s

<h3>What is elastic collision velocity? </h3>
  • The velocity of the target particle after a head-on elastic impact in which the projectile is significantly more massive than the target will be roughly double that of the projectile, but the projectile velocity will remain virtually unaltered.
