Students have asked these similar questions
Mosses don’t spread by dispersing seeds; they disperse tiny spores. The spores are so small that they will stay aloft and move with the wind, but getting them to be windborne requires the moss to shoot the spores upward. Some species do this by using a spore-containing capsule that dries out and shrinks. The pressure of the air trapped inside the capsule increases. At a certain point, the capsule pops, and a stream of spores is ejected upward at 3.6 m/s, reaching an ultimate height of 20 cm. What fraction of the initial kinetic energy is converted to the final potential energy? What happens to the “lost” energy?
4) Will the ship ride higher in a ocean or lake ? Why?
5) Petroleum geologist and engineers often flood oil wells with salt water to increase production. Why ?
4. In a few sentences, relate the amounts of energy needed to heat the cold and
hot water with the amounts of time that it took to heat each sample. Do the
results make sense? Why?

The advantage of the island is the number of different renewable energypotentials. The cost of electricity on the island is $0.39 kWh.1) Using solar radiation photovoltaic technologies, it was estimated that 500 rooftops, with a total surface area of 456 000 m2 will be available to install the photovoltaic panels. Assume that the solar panels actually cover 90% of the available surface area. Given, the size of a standard photovoltaic cell is 156 mm by 156 mm and for a silicon photovoltaic cell, each PV cellproduces a current of 2.5 A at a voltage of 0.5 V. The average daily irradiance for the island is 185 W/m2. Assume the initial capacity expenditure evaluated on a yearly basis of the photovoltaic system, that covers, 90% of the available surface area is US$600 000 and the annual operating cost is US $5…arrow_forward16.
