Should the United States subsidize home solar and wind energy? If so, by how much? If not, what would you do, other than provide government subsidies, to encourage development of solar and other renewables?
6) (a) The United States, with a population of 2.2×10^8 people, consumes 5×10^19 J per year. What is the per capita consumption in watts? (b) The sun's radiation provides the earth with 1000 W/m^2. Assuming solar energy can be converted to electrical energy with a 20% efficiency, how much area is needed to serve the energy needs of each U.S. citizen?
The nebular hypothesis states that our solar system originally formed from an enormous cloud of dust and gas. Which of the following statements does NOT provide evidence in support of the nebular hypothesis? O The major planets of the solar system all orbit in the same direction. The major planets of the solar system all lie in the same plane. The sun's radiation peaks in the X-ray frequencies. The inner planets are rocky and small while the outer planets are...
3. Americans Love Energy The average power consumption per capita in the United States is 10,000 w. (see https://en wikipedia.org/wiki/List.of.countries.by-energy consumption per capita) a. Roughly how many Joules of energy does an average American consume per year? How many snickers bars does that correspond to? b. Look up the power consumption of an LED lightbulb you can buy on Amazon for your house. If you were to take the power consumption of a single American and use it to power...

Question #1: "It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity" Albert Einstein (Scientist) The United States is considered one of the leaders in energy management and technology. However, we have a long way to go before we are in a good position to declare a victory of the energy crisis. Using the website, listed below, as a starting point discuss what you feel the United States should set as renewable energy goal and how we should...
The United States generates 3.1*10') of geothermal energy per day. If all of this energy is used to perform work, what is the minimum amount of heat that needs to be removed from a 150°C hot steam reservoir if the outside temperature of 20.0°C is to be used as a cold reservoir?
Imagine that you are the Wellness General of the United States. Create a three part platform for how you would like to change the current health care system to better serve the needs of older adults. In other words, what are three major change initiatives you would implement? (make sure to keep the answer at the public policy, not the individual). Make sure to include evidence based rationale.
B: Case Study Based on the diagram below, which renewable energy source should the United States concentrate on increasing?
