4. What happens to the composition of an atom to cause it to become positively or negatively charged?

1 answer:

8 0

In an atom, you have three particles: protons, electrons, and neutrons.

When you add or subtract electrons from an atom, it means that there are either more protons than electrons (positively charged) or there are more electrons than protons (negatively charged).

You cannot add or subtract protons since they are the atomic number, which means the number of protons determines the element. Neutrons have a neutral charge, so they wouldn't affect the charge at all.

vlabodo [156]

The average amount of solar energy incident on the PV per day is 10000 kWh/day.

<h3>Equation</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let the PV array has an area equal to 50 square meters. Hence:

Average amount of solar energy incident on the PV per day = 200 kWh/m²/day * 50 m² = 10000 kWh/day.

One should never anchor in a narrow channel, until unless required very importantly. One should stay to the starboard side, and use a prolonged blast. The announcement must be done to alarm the nearby vessels, about your approach. The vessel should be kept at the outer limit of the starboard side.
