At the surface of the earth, there is an approximate average solar flux of 0.75 kW/m2. A family wishes to construct a solar ener

gy conversion system to power their home. If the conversion system is 30% efficient and the family needs a maximum of 26 kW, what effective surface area is needed for perfectly absorbing collectors?

Answer:

S=115.6 [m^{2}]

Explanation:

If the family needs 26 kW of power, and knowing that the efficient is 30% the relation between the solar flux and the power would be:

\Phi_{solar} [kW/m^{2}]\cdot S [m^{2}] \cdot e=26 [kW] (1)

e is the efficient (in our case 0.3)

Φsolar is the solar flux

S is the effective surface

Solving (1) for S we have:

S=\frac{26 [kW]}{0.75 [kW/m^{2}]\cdot 0.3}=115.6 [m^{2}]

I hope it helps!

This object is located 13.0 cm to the left of the lens and the image forms at 20.8 cm to the right of the lens.
Alina [70]

Answer:

0.125 cm

Explanation:

1/f = 1/d¡ + 1/d。

Find the focal point

(13.0^-1 + 20.8^-1) = 0.125 m

Focal point = 0.125 m

Which statement best describes the law of conservation of energy?
Phantasy [73]
<span>The correct option is C. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. This statement is known as law of conservation of energy, and it implies that whenever a certain form of energy does change, the loss of this form of energy must have converted into an another type of energy. A typical example is an object falling to the ground: initially, the object has gravitational potential energy. As the object falls down, it loses potential energy (since its altitude from the grounf decreases), but it acquires kinetic energy (because its velocity increases). In this example, potential energy has converted into kinetic energy, but the total energy of the object has remained constant.</span>

Some students set up a circuit and decided to measure the voltage at different points around
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

 V₁ = 6 V ,  V₂ = V₃ = 3 V

Explanation:

To solve this circuit we must remember that there are two fundamental types of construction in series and parallel.

* a serial circuit there is only one path for current

in this circuit the constant current in the entire circuit and the voltage is the sum of the voltage of each term

* Parallel circuit in this there are two or more paths for the current

in this circuit the voltage is constant and the east is divided between each branch

with these principles let's analyze the proposed circuit

The DC battery is in parallel with resistor R1 and the equivalent of the other branch,

as in a parallel circuit the voltage is constant

               V₁ = 6 V

in the other branch (23) it forms a series construction, where the current is constant

               6 = iR₂ + iR₃

as they indicate that each resistance has the same value

              6 = 2 iR

              V = V₂ = V₃ = 3 V
