What is the biggest disadvantage of solar electricity, or at least, why is it not used much more than it currently is?

<span>The Solar electricity source of energy comes from the sun’s rays. It is more often in the form of a panel known as the solar panel. It has a photovoltaic system that generates and supplies energy in commercial and residential areas. Even though numerous countries are using this type of electricity to save electric-induced power, it is not used for a number of reasons. One is that 1 panel with a size of 6 by 10 solar cells is expensive. There are countries who cannot afford to buy them. Two, it requires a larger area to place the panel. Three, the efficiency is low. The smaller the panel is, the lower its efficiency and therefore produces lesser power to generate a specific area.  </span>

the density of a steel is 7.8.find the mass of steel cube of side 10 cm. find volume of steel if the mass is 8kg​
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Mass of the steel cube =  7800 kg

Volume of the steel  = 1.025 cubic centimetre

Explanation:

Given:

The density of the steel   =  7.8

Side of the cube = 12 cm

<u>(1)The mass of steel cube :</u>

We know that,

Density  = \frac{Mass}{Volume}

We are given with density and sides of the cube

then volume of the cube

= (side)^3

= 10^3

= 1000 cubic centimetre

Now

7.8 = \frac{mass}{1000}

mass = 7.8 \times 1000

mass =  7800 kg

<u>(2)volume of steel:</u>

Given the mass  = 8 kg

Density  = \frac{Mass}{Volume}

Substituting the values

7.8 = \frac{8}{volume}

volume = \frac{8}{7.8}

volume = 1.025 cubic centimetre

g n diffraction, the formula for minima is given by a times s i n (theta )equals m lambda, where a is the width of the slit, the
ki77a [65]

Answer:

θ = 22.2

Explanation:

This is a diffraction exercise

        a sin θ = m λ

The extension of the third zero is requested (m = 3)

They indicate the wavelength  λ = 630 nm = 630 10⁻⁹ m and the width of the slit  a = 5 10⁻⁶ m

         sin  θ = m λ / a

         sin  θ = 3 630 10⁻⁹ / 5 10⁻⁶

         sin  θ = 3.78 10⁻¹ = 0.378

          θ = sin⁻¹  0.378

         

to better see the result let's find the angle in radians

          θ = 0.3876 rad

let's reduce to degrees

         θ = 0.3876 rad (180º /π rad)

         θ = 22.2º

A running back with a mass of 70 kg travels down the field with a velocity of 5.0 m s . Calculate the kinetic energy of the foot
jarptica [38.1K]

K.E = 1/2 mv²

    =  1/2 (70kg) (5.0ms)²

    =  1 ˣ ( 1750) / 2

    = 875 kgms²

What happens to the pressure in all parts of a confined fluid if the pressure in one part is increased?
Sauron [17]

Answer:

The pressure will be transmitted equally to all other parts of the confined fluid causing a general increase in pressure throughout the container.

Explanation:

This is in line with pascal's law of pressure which states that the pressure exerted on a given mass of fluid is transmitted undiminished to other parts of the fluid.
