Holes help make sponges and English muffins useful (and, in the case of the latter, delicious). Without holes, they wouldn’t be flexible enough to bend into small crevices, or to sop up the perfect amount of jam and butter. In a new study, University of Chicago scientists find that holes can also […]
In 2010, a research team led by Professor Zhong Lin Wang at Georgia Institute of Technology, USA, showed that the use of piezoelectric materials (materials that generate electrical energy on applying mechanical strain) could improve the performance of optoelectronic devices – devices that convert light into electricity (e.g. solar cells) or electricity into light […]
Nuclear is also much more expensive, according to the WNISR report. The cost of generating solar energy is between $ 36 and $ 44 per megawatt-hour (MWh), according to the WNISR, the amount of onshore wind energy is between $ 29-56 per MWh. Nuclear power costs between $ 112 and $ 189. Is nuclear safer […]
What he does with Joe Biden as a man, a public figure or a high-ranking official, his president is unlike any other in modern American history. He may have faced more problems at the same time than any other president since Franklin D. Roosevelt, and one indication that Biden has already applied for a Security […]
NASA’s team handling the Lucy mission is facing major challenges as one of the solar panels, which failed to fully deploy, is still refusing to unfurl completely. Soon after the spacecraft’s launch, which was conducted on October 16 last year, the engineers noticed that one of Lucy’s two solar panels is unfurled between 75% to […]
What are the benefits of solar energy give two examples of its use in daily life? Solar energy can be used to prepare food with the help of solar cookers. It can also be used to convert salt water into drinking water with the help of a solar still. Finally, solar energy can be converted […]
