By the use of "Solar cells" or "Solar panel", we can trap solar energy in silicon/germanium rods, then we can convert in into electricity too.

Hope this helps!

A 15kg penguin slides on its belly down an icy, frictionless glacier. If the penguin started from rest and reaches a speed of 11
Schach [20]

Answer:

Mechanical Energy (initial) = Mechanical energy (final)

Ep(initial) + Ek(initial) = Ep(final) + Ek(final)

mgh(initial) + 1/2mv²(initial) = mgh(final) + 1/2mv²(final)

m being the mass of the penguin (kg)

g being gravitational acceleration (9.80 m/s²)

v(initial) being zero

h(final) being zero,i.e. final height is zero

v(final) being final velocity

solve for h(initial) being initial height at the top of the glacier

answer will be in metres

NB: don't forget to square the velocity

Explanation:

Since they mentioned frictionless, we know that this is a closed system therefore we are free to use this equation of conservation of mechanical energy

The eyes of many older people have lost the ability to accommodate, and so an older person’s near point may be more than 25 cm f
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Smaller refractive power

Explanation:

The refractive power of an eye is the extent to which it can converge or diverge the light rays.

Near point is the the closest point for an eye such that when an object is placed at that point the image it forms is sharp and clearly visible to the eye.

A the person ages, the ciliary muscles of the eyes weakens and as a result the lens contracts and the formation of the image takes place behind the retina instead of forming at the retina.

Thus the near point also increases and the refractive power becomes smaller.

777dan777 [17]

Explanation:

∆x=300 m×2

∆t=1.5 s

v=∆x/∆t → v=2×300/1.5 = 400 m/s
