Answer:
More than enough solar energy (8.2 million quad BTUs, 1 quad = 2.9 x1011 kWh) hits Earth's surface each year to meet all of societies' needs. Currently we use about 400 quads per year to run our society. Good building design allows passive use of sunlight to heat homes. Simple solar collectors are used to heat water and cook food. As useful as it is for these purposes, thermal energy from sunlight is still a low quality energy compared to electricity. Computers, most machinery, light bulbs, subway trains, and much more all require electricity. It is possible to turn thermal energy from the sun into electricity. In this unit we will examine how.
. We will also examine how to make electricity directly from light using the photovoltaic cells.
Because metric units use the deca system, 1km = 1000m = 100 000cm etc...
"Average velocity" is the vector among the choices given in the question that describes <span>how fast an object moves over a long time interval. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the last option or the fourth option. I hope the answer has helped you.</span>
Answer:
1.3 m/s
Explanation:
(300N of Fa + 100N' of Fa) - 140N of Ff /200Kg
400N of Fa - 140N* of Ff
260 of ∑F/ 200kg = acceleration
a of piano = 1.3 m/s²
Answer:
Crude oil and natural gas are both energy commodities. As such, we use these fuels to heat and cool our homes or supply other energy needs. The price relationship between crude oil and natural gas is an inter-commodity spread, in which the prices between the two change in relation to each other.
Historically, in an inter-commodity spread, when one becomes more expensive, the other will be more desirable for consumers because of the lower prices and higher supply.
Many companies that produce crude oil also produce natural gas. Natural gas and crude oil exploration and production are often related because the release and capture of natural gas can occur during the oil drilling process.
The relationship between crude oil and natural gas changed around the turn of the 21st century due to the discovery of more natural gas reserves in the United States.
Huge natural gas reserves, previously undiscovered in the Marcellus and Utica shale regions of the U.S., altered the price relationship between these two energy commodities, lowering the price of natural gas in the U.S. while the price of oil continued to rise between 2000 and 2014.
Attributed to slowing growth of emerging economies and a reduction in oil demand, a drastic drop in the price of crude oil occurred in late 2014, continuing through early 2016. By 2018, the price of crude oil crept back up to over $70 per barrel. However, due to the coronavirus in 2020 almost halting demand for oil, crude oil prices dropped to historic lows, while natural gas dropped a little, but held pretty steady.
