HELLLPPP MEEEEE PLSSSS BRANLIEST ANSWER WILL BE AWAREDED Prepare a report on how is solar energy used in scientific experiments.
Answer:
SOLAR ENERGY
Our primary source of clean, abundant energy is the sun. The sun deposits 120,000 TW of
radiation on the surface of the Earth, far exceeding human needs even in the most aggressive
energy demand scenarios. The sun is Earth’s natural power source, driving the circulation of
global wind and ocean currents, the cycle of water evaporation and condensation that creates
rivers and lakes, and the biological cycles of photosynthesis and life. Covering 0.16% of the land
on Earth with 10% efficient solar conversion systems would provide 20 TW of power, nearly
twice the world’s consumption rate of fossil energy and the equivalent 20,000 1-GWe nuclear
fission plants. These comparisons illustrate the impressive magnitude of the solar resource,
providing an energy stream far more potent than present-day human technology can achieve.
All routes for utilizing solar energy exploit the functional steps of capture, conversion, and
storage. The sun’s energy arrives on Earth as radiation distributed across the color spectrum
from infrared to ultraviolet. The energy of this radiation must be captured as excited electronhole pairs in a semiconductor, a dye, or a chromophore, or as heat in a thermal storage medium.
Excited electrons and holes can be tapped off for immediate conversion to electrical power, or
transferred to biological or chemical molecules for conversion to fuel. Natural photosynthesis
produces fuel in the form of sugars and other carbohydrates derived from the reduction of CO2 in
the atmosphere and used to power the growth of plants. The plants themselves become available as biomass for combustion as primary fuels or for conversion in reactors to secondary fuels like
liquid ethanol or gaseous carbon monoxide, methane, and hydrogen. We are now learning to
mimic the natural photosynthetic process in the laboratory using artificial molecular assemblies,
where the excited electrons and holes can drive chemical reactions to produce fuels that link to
our existing energy networks. Atmospheric CO2 can be reduced to ethanol or methane, or water
can be split to create hydrogen. These fuels are the storage media for solar energy, bridging the
natural day-night, winter-summer, and cloudy-sunny cycles of solar radiation.
In addition to electric and chemical conversion routes, solar radiation can be converted to heat
energy. Solar concentrators focus sunlight collected over a large area to a line or spot where heat
is collected in an absorber. Temperatures as high as 3,000°C can be generated to drive chemical
reactions, or heat can be collected at lower temperatures and transferred to a thermal storage
medium like water for distributed space heating or steam to drive an engine. Effective storage of
solar energy as heat requires developing thermal storage media that accumulate heat efficiently
during sunny periods and release heat slowly during dark or cloudy periods. Heat is one of the
most versatile forms of energy, the common link in nearly all our energy networks. Solar thermal
conversion can replace much of the heat now supplied by fossil fuel.
Although many routes use solar energy to produce electricity, fuel, and heat, none are currently
competitive with fossil fuels for a combination of cost, reliability, and performance. Solar
electricity from photovoltaics is too costly, by factors of 5–10, to compete with fossil-derived
electricity, and is too costly by factors of 25–50 to compete with fossil fuel as a primary energy
source. Solar fuels in the form of biomass produce electricity and heat at costs that are within
range of fossil fuels, but their production capacity is limited. The low efficiency with which they
convert sunlight to stored energy means large land areas are required. To produce the full 13 TW
of power used by the planet, nearly all the arable land on Earth would need to be planted with
switchgrass, the fastest-growing energy crop. Artificial photosynthetic systems are promising
routes for converting solar energy to fuels, but they are still in the laboratory stage where the
principles of their assembly and functionality are being explored. Solar thermal systems provide
the lowest-cost solar electricity at the present time, but require large areas in the Sun Belt and
breakthroughs in materials to become economically competitive with fossil energy as a primary
energy source. While solar energy has enormous promise as a clean, abundant, economical
energy source, it presents formidable basic research challenges in designing materials and in
understanding the electronic and molecular basis of capture, conversion, and storage before its
promise can be realized.

Would the Civil Rights Movement have been successful without any leaders?
Answer:
No because without any leaders there would not have been anyone giving orders to the soldiers. Therefore the people would have been running everyone fighting for what they thought was right. The civil rights Movement needed leaders because no one person can make a major change. But a group of people sticking together for what they thought was right, and campaigning behind it's leaders, made a huge difference in the world today.

Because managers carefully select stocks with long-term earning potential. Investment Opportunity 2 risks are related to changing interest rates, which can cause bonds to make less money for bondholders. Also, it may be affected by inflation, and it carries the risk of default: if a city or county government fails to make its bond payments, then the bondholder loses money. Both companies tell you the risks, and they have the same level of it. Investment Opportunity 1 has three documents to illustrate the fund’s risks and returns over the past five years.
The first graph lists how a hypothetical investment of $10,000 fared over those five years. The second graph lists an overall earnings percentage for four different earnings periods. The final graphic shows how the company rates the level of risk. Investment Opportunity 2 also provided three documents to illustrate the fund’s risks and returns over the past five years. The first graph lists how a hypothetical investment of $10,000 fared over those five years. The second graph lists an overall earnings percentage for four different earnings periods.
The final graphic shows how the company rates the level of risk. Both say the potential returns of each investment, but investment opportunity 1 hypothetical investment of $10,000 fared over those five years is not as steady as investment opportunity 2. Investment Opportunity 2 is the fraudulent one because its percentage of return is better than investment opportunity 1. Both are with large companies that are almost just alike but investment opportunity 2 has a better rate of return. The first one serves thousands of customers and specializes in managing stocks and mutual funds. The second firm serves thousands of customers, and it specializes in managing mutual funds that invest in bonds.
Answer:
Since managers choose stocks with a long-term earning potential with consideration. Investment Possibility Two risks are linked to interest rate changes, which may result in bondholders losing money. It can also be affected by inflation and is subject to default: if a city or county government fails to meet bond payments, bondholders lose money. Both companies will inform you.

According to Holling, why is being a Presbyterian now a disaster? *
Answer:
Holling Hoodhood has to spend his Wednesday afternoons with Mrs. Baker, because he is not allowed to go to where the other students in his school have to go. Holling attends a school that is a mixture of Catholic and Jewish students. Holling is neither. On Wednesdays, the Jewish students go to Hebrew school and the Catholic students go to catechism.
"So being a Presbyterian was now a disaster. Especially on Wednesday afternoons when, at 1:45 sharp, half of my class went to Hebrew School at Temple Beth-El, and, at 1:55, the other half went to Catechism at Saint Adelbert's. This left behind just the Presbyterians. Of which there had been three, and now there was one.
Me."
Because Holling can't go with the Catholic students or the Jewish students, he has to spend the rest of the afternoon with Mrs. Baker. Holling and Mrs. Baker are not happy with the arrangement. For the first month or so Mrs. Baker makes Holling do menial tasks such as cleaning chalk erasers. Eventually she decides to teach Holling Shakespeare, and that begins a strong and long lasting bond between the two of them.
