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.
In order to determine the required force to stop the car, proceed as follow:
Calculate the deceleration of the car, by using the following formula:
where,
v: final speed = 0m/s (the car stops)
vo: initial speed = 36m/s
x: distance traveled = 980m
a: deceleration of the car= ?
Solve the equation above for a, replace the values of the other parameters and simplify:
Next, consider that the formula for the force is:
where,
m: mass of the car = 820 kg
a: deceleration of the car = 0.66m/s^2
Replace the previous values and simplify:
Hence, the required force to stop the car is 542.20N
Answer:
refractive index of the unknown material is 1.33.
Explanation:
μ₁ = 1.21
incidence angle (i) = 41.9°
refraction angle (r) = 37.3°
Let us assume μ be the refractive index of the unknown material
according to snell's law of refraction.
μ₁ sin i = μ₂ sin r
1.21 × sin 41.9° = μ × sin 37.3°
μ = 1.33
hence the refractive index of the unknown material comes out top be 1.33
Answer: A chemical equation describes a chemical reaction. Reactants are starting materials and are written on the left-hand side of the equation. Products are the end-result of the reaction and are written on the right-hand side of the equation.
