Solar energy is: expensive renewable inefficient during winter all of the above

creativ13 [48]

Solar energy is free and renewable.

Its efficiency is determined by the photovoltaic or heat-exchanging equipment used, and the efficiency of the infrastructure built to interconnect them. None of that depends on the time of the year. For a given amount of solar energy absorbed by the collector, the amount of useful output energy doesn't change with the season.

Light waves travel most slowly through a ____<br><br> A) gas<br> B) solid<br> C) liquid

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Liquid

Explanation: It can't be gas because gases are all around us and we can still see light. For solids it can't even move through a solid. Ex: If you're in a solid dome made of rock you can't get any light through. Let me know if I'm right!

A voltage is applied to a resistor,

ladessa [460]

Answer:

Explanation:

By Ohms Law, Voltage = Current * Resistance

Keeping the voltage the same and doubling the resistance, the current will be halved.

So the new current = 1.5/2 = 0.75A

A cat is chasing a mouse across a 1.3 m tall dining table. The mouse darts to the side and the cat accidentally slides off, land

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

1) 0.51 seconds.

2) 1.45 m/s.

Explanation:

given, height from which cat falls = 1.3 m

we know that, s = ut + $\frac{1}{2}$ at².

here if we consider cat moment only in downward direction,

intial velocity of cat in downward direction , u = 0.

so, time, t = $\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }$ .

⇒ t = $\sqrt{\frac{2(1.3)}{9.81} }$ = 0.51 seconds.

t = 0.51 seconds.

now, consider cat moment only in forward direction

s = ut , since acceleration is zero in forward direction

⇒ u = $\frac{s}{t}$ .

so, u = $\frac{0.75}{0.51}$ = 1.45 m/s .

What amount of energy is needed for an electron to jump from n = 1 to n = 4?

liberstina [14]

Answer:

$E=2.04\times 10^{-18}\ J$

Explanation:

We need to find the energy for an electron to jump from n = 1 to n = 4.

The energy in transition from 1 state to another is given by :

$E=\dfrac{-2.18\times 10^{-18}}{n^2}\ J$

The difference in energy for n = 1 to n = 4 is:

$E=-2.18\times 10^{-18}\times (\dfrac{1}{4^2}-1)\\\\E=2.04\times 10^{-18}\ J$

So, the required energy is equal to $2.04\times 10^{-18}\ J$ .
