Answer:
Efficiency is ratio of output energy and input energy
Explanation:
Efficiency is defined as the output that we will get from a given machine for a given input of energy.
So here we know that input energy that we are getting from wind is in the form of electrical energy converted by the turbine and the input energy here is in the form of kinetic energy of wind or air molecules
so here this kinetic energy of wind will help to rotate the turbine due to which we will get the output electrical energy but in this whole process some of the wind energy is converted into heat due to frictional force between several components of turbine which shows our energy loss in this process
so efficiency is given by

Answer:
a) E = 1.58 10²¹ J , b) Oil = 4,236 107 liter , e) T = 54.3 C
Explanation:
a) To calculate the energy that reaches Earth, let us combine that the power emitted by the Sun is distributed uniformly on a spherical surface
I = P / A
A = 4π r²
in this case the radius of the sphere is the distance from the Sun to Earth r = 1.5 10¹¹ m
I = P / A
I = P / 4π r²
let's calculate
I = 3,828 10²⁵/4 pi (1.5 10¹¹)²
I = 1.3539 10²W / m² = 135.4 W / m2
the energy that reaches the disk of the Earth is
E = I A
the area of a disc
A = π r²
E = I π r²
where r is the radius of the Earth 6.37 10⁶ m
E = 135.4 π(6.37 10⁶)
E = 1,726 10¹⁶ W
This is the energy per unit of time that reaches Earth
t = 1 dai (24h / 1day) (3600s / 1h) = 86400 s
E = 1,826 10¹⁶ 86400
E = 1.58 10²¹ J
b) for this part we can use a direct proportions rule
Oil = 1.58 10²¹ (1 / 37.3 10⁶)
Oil = 4,236 10⁷ liter
c) to silence the surface temperature of the Earth we use the Stefan-Bolztman Law
P = σ A e T⁴
T =
nos indicate the refect, therefore the amount of absorbencies
P_absorbed = 0.7 P
let's calculate
T = REA (0.7 1.58 1021 / [pi (6.37 106) 2 1)
T = RER (8,676 106)
T = 54.3 C
b) Among the other factors that must be taken into account is the greenhouse effect, due to the absorption of gases from the atmosphere
