Variations in the solar resource are probably the first and main consideration. You can use local weather stations where available, otherwise satellite data (eg from NASA's website) or commercial databases such as Meteonorm. Also there is quite a comprehensive set of data files in the SAM software
Other important considerations are
local environment: plants and animals that could be affected by the system; community support and buy-in.wind, hail, rain, snow profile for the location in question. if there are high/tropical winds then it will increase the plant cost.flight paths and roads near the plant which could be affected by glint and glareproximity to a local town where staff will be able to live both during construction and later during operationproximity to a electricity transmission line with available capacityavailability of water for mirror cleaning and steam blowdown.cost (and availability) of electricity in the area. If remote, electricity/energy may be very expensive, which will enable a high price for electricity sold from the plant.quality of road to the plant, required to bring equipment and materials to sitepolitical stability of the region -- potential impact on perceived bankability of the project.
Many of these items will have a large influence on the cost of the plant and/or the revenue it will generate during its life. Others relate to environmental and risk factors and are also critically important to consider.
Hope this helps!!
The question is basically asking what is happening to the energy (that is in the form of heat) when it is being absorbed by an object. The energy being absorbed from the heat source is being turned into kinetic energy. This can be explained by temperature change. As you add more heat to an object, the temperature rises. Since temperature is the average kinetic energy of all of the molecules in an object, we can say that as temperature rises so does the kinetic energy of the molecules in the object. Due to the fact that heat is causing the temperature to increase, we can say that the energy from the heat is being turned into kinetic energy.
I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
Conduction-
putting an icepack on injury
grabbing a warm coffee mug
burning yourself by touching boiling water
the handle of a pot being to hot to touch
Convection-
heat from a fire to warm hands
warm water rising to the surface of of the ocean etc.
warm air rising off pavement
an oven that cooks by cycling warm air through the bottom and out the top
Radiation-
cooking popcorn using microwave
heat from the sun hitting a solar panel
( i havent done science in a while cuz im homeschooled but i think most of these are correct)
good luck on what your working on !!
Answer:
We typically represent covalent bonds with a dash ( - ) between the atoms. This indicates a single bond. Ex: Cl - Cl
Single bond, double bond, triple bond.
Explanation:
We call it a single covalent bond because the atoms are sharing a single pair of electrons.
<span>"Chemical weathering and physical weathering" would be the correct answer
Chemical weathering breaks down the bonds holding the rocks together, and the physical weathering will crush and break them apart.</span>
