The advantages of the hydropower are:
- It is renewable
- It is a clean source of energy
- Matches current demand
- It is stable and reliable
- Requires low operating cost
The disadvantages of the hydropower are:
- Causes environmental damage
- Cost of building is expensive
- May cause droughts
- May cause floods in lower areas
- Shortage of water supply
The hydroelectric power has its prons and cons. It is very expansive for building, and it causes environmental damage in the river systems, but it also causes hazards like droughts and floods at certain areas. On the other side, once established it is very cheap, and it gets the job done when it comes to electricity. It is also an energy that is not polluting, and it is sustainable, reliable, and renewable.
Answer:
The stability of atoms depends on whether or not their outer-most shell is filled with electrons. If the outer shell is filled, the atom is stable. Atoms with unfilled outer shells are unstable, and will usually form chemical bonds with other atoms to achieve stability.
Explanation:
Answer:
-12162.47 joules (or -12000 joules when accounting for significant figures)
Explanation (btw I used 1 cal as 4.184 joules because SI units are better):
q = m c delta T
q = (70.9) (4.184) (25 - 66)
q = (70.9) (4.184) (-41)
q = -12162.47 joules
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The principle of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to another. Hence, chemical energy in a battery can be converted to electrical energy.
Usually, the conversion of energy from one form to another is not 100% efficient according to the second law of thermodynamics. Some energy is wasted in the process, sometimes as heat.
Hence, in an ideal situation where no heat energy is produced; all the chemical energy is converted to electrical energy (100% energy conversion). There will be no energy loss if no heat is produced.

they are white so they can camouflage, but actually the polar bears skin is black and it's hair is hollow
