Answer:
a) 3170 kw
b) 377 km^2
Explanation:
Estimate of electric power
a) Given :
Average power consumption for a family of 3 = 108.4 * 106 BTU per year = 0.0317 kw = 31.7 watts
<u>The power requirement for a city of 300000 people </u>
= 31.7 watts * 100000 = 3170000 watts = 3170 kw
b) Given :
Average solar panel insulation = 8.4 W /m^2
<u>Estimate the area of silicon solar cells required to satisfy community power requirement</u>
= (1 * 3170) * (1000/8.4 )
= 377.380 * 10^3 m2 = 377 km^2

Answer:
One way to look at this is to consider the forces acting on any point in a string.
For a very small portion of string F = M a must still hold. As M approaches zero the small portion of string would have to approach infinite acceleration if the net force on that portion of string were not zero.
One generally considers the net force acting on the center of mass of an object not the individual forces acting on each infinitesimal mass composing
the object.
Answer:
It’s called a conservative field.
Explanation:
I think it’s going to be the conservative field because in the question it talks about how it is able to become possible to define potential at a point in an electric field because electric field.
Answer:
Explanation:
12 ÷ 5 = 2.4
2.4 x 6 = 14.4 = 15 days or 14 days and 4 hours
Kinetic energy:
1) A car traveling down the road has less kinetic energy than a semi-truck and traveling at the same speed because the car's mass is much less than the truck's.
2) A river flowing at a certain speed possesses kinetic energy because the water has a certain mass and it also has velocity.
3) An insect flying has a small amount of kinetic energy because its mass and velocity are relatively small.
Potential Energy:
1) The food we eat has chemical potential energy because as our body digests it, it provides us with energy for basic metabolism.
2) A stretched spring in a pinball machine has elastic potential energy and can move the steel ball when released.
3) When a crane swings a wrecking ball up to a certain height, it gains more potential energy and has the ability to crash through buildings.
