drek231 [11]3 years ago
8 0

The advantage of using a solar cooker is that it is Eco-friendly and the disadvantage is that it can be used only under certain conditions.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

A solar cooker is used for cooking food without having to use electricity or gas. Instead, the appliance uses heat from the sun to cook food. It is used widely in by people who travel in remote areas or go on trips. But the appliance has limitations of its own too.

ADVANTAGES

  • Using it is friendly to the environment
  • It can be easily assembled without expert assistance
  • No compromise on the quality and taste of foo

DISADVANTAGES

  • Requires sun to function and prepare food
  • Cannot function in winters or monsoon when the sun isn't present
  • Does not retain heat as efficiently and quickly as compared to other cooking appliances

A parallel plate air capacitor has a capacitance of 10 to the power -9. What potential difference is required for a charge of 5×
Maurinko [17]

The potential difference across the capacitor is 5 × 10∧4 volts and the energy stored in it is 1. 25 Joules

<h3>What is the energy in a capacitor?</h3>

The energy stored in a capacitor is an electrostatic potential energy.

It is related to the charge(Q) and voltage (V) between the capacitor plates.

It is represented as 'U'.

<h3>How to determine the potential difference</h3>

Formula:

Potential difference, V is the ratio of the charge to the capacitance of a capacitor.

It is calculated using:

V = Q ÷ C

Where Q = charge 5 × 10∧-5C and C = capacitance 10∧-9

Substitute the values into the equation

Potential difference, V = 5 × 10∧-5 ÷  10∧-9 = 5 × 10∧4 volts

<h3>How to determine the energy stored</h3>

Formula:

Energy, U = 1 ÷ 2 (QV)

Where Q= charge and V = potential difference across the capacitor

Energy, U = 1 ÷ 2 ( 5 × 10∧-5 × 5 × 10∧4)

= 0.5 × 25 × 10∧-1

= 0.5 × 2.5

= 1. 25 Joules

Therefore, the potential difference across the capacitor is 5 × 10∧4 volts and the energy stored in it is 1. 25 Joules

Why do you not come to thermal equilibrium on a cold day
Tju [1.3M]

Two physical systems are in thermal equilibrium if no heat flows between them when they are connected by a path permeable to heat. Thermal equilibrium obeys the zeroth law of thermodynamics. A system is said to be in thermal equilibrium with itself if the temperature within the system is spatially and temporally uniform.

Systems in thermodynamic equilibrium are always in thermal equilibrium, but the converse is not always true. If the connection between the systems allows transfer of energy as heat but does not allow transfer of matter or transfer of energy as work, the two systems may reach thermal equilibrium without reaching thermodynamic equilibrium.

How much force is needed to accelerate a 68 kilogram skier at a rate of 1.2m/sec
xxMikexx [17]

Let's use Newton's 2nd law of motion:

                                     Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                                     Force = (68 kg) x (1.2 m/s²) =  81.6 newtons .
