What is solar lighting most often used for?
Solar lighting is produced by the use of solar energy also known as photovoltaic cell. This device is used to convert the solar energy into electrical energy. Solar lighting is often used for supplying household electricity.
What Special panels often located on top of buildings are used to collect?
solar energy :)

How do you use solar energy in a sentence?
Solar energy is the energy produced by the sun, and the phrase is often used in the context of usable energy produced by solar panels. An example of a sentence using the phrase "solar energy" is "As the technology improves and becomes more affordable, solar energy will make up a larger share of residential energy usage. "
What type of energy enters the Earth's atmosphere from the sun?
The energy Earth receives from the Sun is often called solar energy. The rate at which this energy arrives at Earth is about 174 petawatts ( 1 petawatt = 1,000 trillion watts) at the upper atmosphere. About 30% is reflected back to space. The sun energy at the Earth's surface is mostly in the visible and near-infrared ranges with a small amount in the near-ultraviolet.
How often is energy released during nuclear fusion?
The only fusion energy in the universe is in the stars like the sun, and there are millions of such stars!
Is matter and energy conserved in a food web?
Matter and total energy are ALWAYS conserved. However, in a food web, you will often consider the USABLE energy; this gets reduced at each step of the food web.
Scientists classify everything in the universe as?
If they are astronomers, they classify everything as 'interesting'. I think the answer may be something like "matter or energy". In fact, according to Relativity Theory, mass (of matter) and energy are in many ways equivalent. "Mass-energy" is a term often used to refer to this fact. Pretty well everything in the Universe is matter or energy,
What is the main purpose of a heat pad?
A heat pad is a chemical apparatus that transforms stored state energy into heat when stimulated. This is often achieved through the use of certain salt solutions stored in a metastable state.
Does mass and energy take up space?
Mass and energy always have locations in both time and space; the amount of space that they take up depends upon their density, but they do take up some. Since energy is often associated with matter (heat, kinetic energy etc.) it would be the matter that takes up the space. The energy would be in the same space as the matter. But energy can also exist independently of matter (such as a photon of light travelling in space) and in that case, the energy takes up space.
What ia plasma?
Plasma is a super-charged state of matter than can be thought of as an energized gas. When gas gains more energy, it often becomes plasma. As such, plasma often carries and releases large amounts of energy.
What happens to the behavior when you add energy to them?
Behavior is not a substance or a matter in this case. Therefore it is not possible to add energy to it. However, there are some behaviors that often come out stronger than others.
Can energy be converted into matter?
No. In any reaction, both matter and energy are conserved. It is often stated that in a nuclear reaction, "matter is converted into energy", but this is misleading - since both matter and energy are conserved! A helium-4 atom (for example) does indeed have less mass than than four hydrogen-1 atoms. But the missing mass is found in the energy. For example, at first, in the Sun, this energy will be released as heat - and the additional energy will increase the mass. Or rather, maintain the exact amount of mass there was before. And the energy doesn't just appear out of nowhere - it was there, before, as potential energy.
Which deity often transforms into the form of an owl?
Athena is the godess of wisdom and her symbol is owl's
Can change from one state to another?
Matter I think I'm not 100% shure but it say in my book matter in one state often can change to another state by adding or removing thermal energy
How is the flow of matter different from the flow of energy?
If you are talking about the relation between mass and energy then according to Einstein equation E=mC2 where "E" is energy produce, and "m" is mass of the body, and "C" is the speed of light, and the "2" is square sign above "C"
What are the five ways that heat can be produced?
Just about any type of energy can be converted to heat - which is often a nuisance, since the energy is wasted for most purposes. For example, you can burn things; in a resistance (or just about any conductor, for that matter) electrical energy is converted to heat, sound energy is converted to heat when it is absorbed, etc.
