In order to decrease the friction on the slide,
we could try some of these:
-- Install a drippy pipe across the top that keeps continuously
dripping olive oil on the top end of the slide. The oil oozes
down the slide and keeps the whole slide greased.
-- Hire a man to spread a coat of butter on the whole slide,
every 30 minutes.
-- Spray the whole slide with soapy sudsy water, every 30 minutes.
-- Drill a million holes in the slide,and pump high-pressure air
through the holes. Make the slide like an air hockey table.
-- Keep the slide very cold, and keep spraying it with a fine mist
of water. The water freezes, and a thin coating of ice stays on
the slide.
-- Ask a local auto mechanic to please, every time he changes
the oil in somebody's car, to keep all the old oil, and once a week
to bring his old oil to the park, to spread on the slide. If it keeps
the inside of a hot car engine slippery, it should do a great job
keeping a simple park slide slippery.
-- Keep a thousand pairs of teflon pants near the bottom of the ladder
at the beginning of the slide. Anybody who wants to slide faster can
borrow a set of teflon pants, put them on before he uses the slide, and
return them when he's ready to go home from the park.
The answer is C. an electron in an orbit has a fixed energy.
That's "<em><u>insolation</u></em>" ... not "insulation".
'Insolation' is simply the intensity of solar radiation over some area.
If 200 kW of radiation is shining on 300 m² of area, then the insolation is
(200 kW) / (300 m²) = <em>(666 and 2/3) watt/m²</em> .
Note that this is the intensity of the <em><u>incident</u></em> radiation. It doesn't say anything
about how much soaks in or how much bounces off.
Wait !
I just looked back at the choices, and realized that I didn't answer the question
at all. I have no idea what "1 sun" means. Forgive me. I have stolen your
points, and I am filled with remorse.
Wait again !
I found it, through literally several seconds of online research.
1 sun = 1 kW/m².
So 2/3 of a kW per m² = 2/3 of 1 sun
That's between 0.5 sun and 1.0 sun.
I feel better now, and plus, I learned something.
