Some benefits to solar power:
Isolated power is very abundant on earth.
Is very sustainable (5 billion years of good use)
Eco friendly excluding panel production.
Some disadvantages:
Very expensive to set up
Takes up a lot of space per person
Requires exotic materials to construct
Energy storage is difficult with solar cells compared to fossil fuels.
Answer:
we need to know what the choices are?
Explanation:
Explanation:
By Hooke's Law, Fe = kx.
Since Fe = 1.6N and x = 9.2cm - 8cm = 1.2cm,
k = Fe/x = 1.6N/1.2cm = 1.33N/cm.
Answer:
Option (D)
Explanation:
Weathering refers to the disintegration of rocks due to the different geological processes that are initiated by agents such as wind, water and ice.
In a region where the temperature is high, and there is sufficient amount of moisture content in the air, there occurs high rate of physical, chemical and biological type of weathering.
- Physical weathering processes such as freeze-thaw method and exfoliation method commonly occurs in this type of region.
- Chemical weathering processes such as hydrolysis, oxidation, as well as carbonation method occurs in the region of high temperature, moist climatic condition.
- Biological weathering also is possible up to some extent as the plants takes up water from the rainfall and also receive enough sunlight for its growth, as a result of which it leads to the breakdown of rocks.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
1) 5.79 s
2) 98.4 ft/s
Explanation:
1)
The motion of the car is a uniformly accelerated motion (it means it travels with constant acceleration), so we can find the time it takes for the car to stop by using the following suvat equation:
where
s is the distance travelled
v is the final velocity
t is the time
a is the acceleration of the car
In this problem we have:
s = 285 ft is the distance travelled
is the acceleration of the car (negative since the car is slowing down)
v = 0 ft/s is the final velocity of the car, since it comes to a stop
Solving for t, we find:
2)
The initial speed of the car can be found by using another suvat equation, namely:
where
v is the final speed
u is the initial speed
a is the acceleration
t is the time
In this problem, we have:
v = 0 is the final speed of the car
is the acceleration of the car (negative since the car is slowing down)
t = 5.79 s is the total time of motion (found in part 1)
Therefore, the initial speed of the car is:
