Answer:
C
Explanation:
One of the disadvantages of solar cells is that electricity storage systems are not readily available. Excess energy generated by the solar panels are wasted except they are stored by solar batteries for later use. There are various systems for storing electricity from solar cells apart from solar batteries which is the common storage system. An example of another electricity storage system for solar cell is using the water electrolyzer to store solar energy which can be used to later generate hydroelectricity.
Advantages of a solar cell includes Renewable energy, Economy-friendly and environmental-friendly energy and good durability
Answer:
Context
Explanation:
It is of great value for an engineer to keep the context of his/her experiment in mind.

Explanation:
Solution:-
- The shell and tube heat exchanger are designated by the order of tube and shell passes.
- A single tube pass: The fluid enters from inlet, exchange of heat, the fluid exits.
- A multiple tube pass: The fluid enters from inlet, exchange of heat, U bend of the fluid, exchange of heat, .... ( nth order of pass ), and then exits.
- By increasing the number of passes we have increased the "retention time" of a specific volume of tube fluid; hence, providing sufficient time for the fluid to exchange heat with the shell fluid.
- By making more U-turns we are allowing greater length for the fluid flow to develop with " constriction and turns " into turbulence. This turbulence usually at the final passes allows mixing of fluid and increases the heat transfer coefficient by:
U ∝ v^( 0.8 ) .... ( turbulence )
- The higher the velocity of the fluids the greater the heat transfer coefficient. The increase in the heat transfer coefficient will allow less heat energy carried by either of the fluids to be wasted ; hence, reduced losses.
Thereby, increases the thermal efficiency of the heat exchanger ( higher NTU units ).
Boats float because the gravity is acting down on it and the buoyant force is acting up on the ship.
