Consider a cloudless day on which the sun shines down across the United States. If 2014 kJ of energy reaches a square meter( m 2

) of the United States in one hour, how much total solar energy reaches the entire United States per hour? The entire area of the United States is 9,158,960 km 2 .

Answer:

      \large\boxed{\large\boxed{18,450kJ/hour}}

Explanation:

1) <em><u>Radiation</u></em><u>'s ratio</u>: 2014 kJ/m²

2) <em><u>United States'</u></em><u> area</u>:  is 9,158,960 km² .

3) <u>Formula:</u>

  • Energy = ratio × area

4) <u>Conversion factor</u>:

         (1km)^2=(1,000m)2\\\\1km^2=1,000,000m^2\\\\1=1km^2/1,000,000m^2

5) <u>Solve</u>:

In one hour:

             E=2,014kJ/m^2\times 9,158,960km^2\times  1km^2/1,000,000m^2\\\\E=18,446kJ\approx 18,450kJ

That is per hour.

The answer is rounded to 4 signficant figures.

Before raw data can be used as scientific evidence, it must be analyzed and summarized. One way of summarizing data is to find t
Sindrei [870]
To calculate the mean, you add up all of the data values, and then divide that sum by the *number* of values.

For instance, if you wanted to find the mean score at a home run derby, and you’re given the following numbers for home runs scored by each player:

5, 4, 6, 5, 3, 1

You could calculate the mean by adding all of the score up

5 + 4 + 6 + 5 + 3 + 1 = 24

And dividing by the number of hitters (in this case, 6)

24 / 6 = 4

So the *mean score* of the home run derby would be 4.

1-propanol (P1° = 20.9 Torr at 25 °C) and 2-propanol (P2° = 45.2 Torr at 25 °C) form ideal solutions in all proportions. Let x1
jekas [21]

Answer:

y1 = 0.3162

y2 = 0.6838

Explanation:

ok let us begin,

first we would be defining the parameters;

at 25°C;

1-propanol P1° = 20.90 Torr

2-propanol P2° = 45.2 Torr

From Raoults law:

P(1-propanol) = P⁰ × X(1-propanol)

P(1-propanol) = 20.9 torr × 0.45 = 9.405

P(1-propanol) = 9.405 torr

Also P(2-propanol) = P⁰ × X(2-propanol)

P(2-propanol) = 45.2 torr × 0.45

P(2-propanol) = 20.34 torr

but the total pressure = sum of individual pressures

total pressure = 9.405 + 20.34

total pressure = 29.745 torr

given that y1 and y2 represent the mole fraction of each in the vapor phase

y1 = P1 / total pressure

y1 = 9.405/29.745

y1 = 0.3162

Since y1 + y2 = 1

y2 = 1 - y1

∴ y2 = 1 -  0.3162

y2 = 0.6838

cheers, i hope this helps.
