2. During what season will more insolation be delivered to a vertical south-facing window on a clear day? During what season will more insolation be delivered to a horizontal skylight on the roof of the same house?

3. The insolation reaching a surface is made up of three components of solar radiation. Name and describe these components.

4. Explain in your own words the difference between renewable and nonrenewable energy resources. Is nuclear energy a renewable or nonrenewable resource?

5. List five renewable energy resources consumed in the United States. List them in order from most to least used.

6. Sunlight is especially intense in the visible light region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Yellow light has a frequency of 525 THz (terahertz, 1 THz = 1012 Hz). What is the wavelength of a wave of yellow light. Compare its size to your answer for the radio wave in question #         1 above.

Consider the reaction

CO(g)+NH3(g)⇌HCONH2(g),    Kc=0.760

If a reaction vessel initially contains only CO and NH3 at concentrations of 1.00 M and 2.00 M, respectively, what will the concentration of HCONH2 be at equilibrium?

When the economy is operating below its potential output the impact or the rate of the economy is referred as a general rule rice in the prices of goods, as we know everything is measured by its price and weight, so at the end the material will be expensive, it’s difficult for the country to boost it net because the people that will affect or will be affected in this case will be teenagers, people who have low skills, less education people who do not have education and people who have low income ‏, so the individual will decline as there is rise in the rate of inflation

Assuming the economy is operating below its potential output, what is the impact of an increase in net exports on real GDP? Why is it difficult, if not impossible, for a country to boost its net exports by increasing its tariffs during a global recession?

Much of primate behavior is learned. Pick a non-human primate that you have been learning about in your readings. Do a little internet search on this primate, specifically looking for video footage in real time and/or articles about the primate's behavior.

Pick 2 behaviors to compare and contrast between "zoo" behavior and that in the wild. Can you think of reasons that might account for the differences in behavior? Write 2-3 paragraphs, and submit this on Canvas.

(In C++ (very quick question))

1. Write a complete program. Declare a 2-Dimensional (size 20 x 30) integer array and use random numbers from 0 to 99 to initialize it. Define the prototype and the definition for a function called Find99(). The function takes three parameters: a 2-Dimensional array of integers (size 20 x 3), and 2 integers to specify the sizes of row and column of the array. (These two parameters should be used in your loops for checking the sizes of row and column.)

The function must check each element of the array. If the element contains the integer 99, the function should print the position of the number 99. (Hint: there may be multiple 99s or no 99 at all.)

Sample output: 99 is located at row 0 and column 0.

In the first step of the Ostwald process for the synthesis of nitric acid, ammonia is converted to nitric oxide by the high-temperature reaction
4NH3(g)+5O2(g)→4NO(g)+6H2O(g)

Part A: How is the rate of consumption of O2 related to the rate of consumption of NH3?

Part B: How is the rate of formation of NO related to the rate of consumption of NH3?

Part C: How is the rates of formation of H2O related to the rate of consumption of NH3?

A mixture of 75.0% propane and 25.0% H2 is burned with 25.0% excess air. Fractional conversions of 90.0% of the propane and 85.0% of the hydrogen are achieved. Of the propane that reacts, 95.0% form CO2 and the rest form CO. Draw the diagram and determine the flue gas (FG) composition (mol%) through an Orsat analysis. Use the elemental balance method.

The following are the details that may help:

1. The fuel contains C3H8 and H2 while air stream contains O2 and N2. This means that the fuel stream (F) is separated from the air stream

2. Aside from the 95% CO2 and (the rest that forms) CO, the flue gas (FG) also contains H2O, O2, and N2

3. The basis can be 100 mol F (fuel)

Two masses collide inelastically in two different kind of collisions. In the first collision, mass 1 with a mass of 11 kg is moving at 20.9 m/s in the positive x direction and collides with mass 2 with a mass of 4 kg moving at 11.9 m/s in the positive x direction.   In the second collision, mass 1 is moving at 20.9 m/s in the positive x direction and collides with mass 2 moving at 11.9 m/s in the negative x direction. If both collisions take place in a time of 0.36 seconds, how much more average force is exerted on mass 2 by mass 1 in the second collision as opposed to the first collision? Answer in Newtons.

You are in charge of the department that receives the product in to the building and stows it to the bin where it is accessible by the department. you have two options on how to receive and stow the product. In the first option, you receive the product at 250 units per labor hour and stow it at 100 units per labor hour. You must receive it and stow it for the unit to count for production. This process results in 1% of the units stowed being incorrect. You can find and fix these errors at a rate of 20 units for labor hour with what you believe is almost 100% accuracy. In the second option, you receive and stow the product in one step vs. two. The rate for this process is 80 units per labor hours for receive and stow. This process results in 1.5% of the units being stowed being incorrect. You can find and fix these errors at a rate of 20 units per hour with what you believe is almost 100% accuracy. 1. Which option would you select to process today's units and why? 2. Does your answer change if you are told you must fully process 100,000 units today? If yes, why? 3. Does your answer change if you are told that you have 15 associates today and you must fully produce the maximum amount of units possible? If yes, why?
