Would a solar powered heating unit work on the moon?
A solar powered heating unit may or may not work on the moon
Would a solar powered portable heating unit work on the moon?
lots of poop in toilet
What kind of mirror would be best suited for use in a solar cooker and why?
concave mirror are the best as it collects the sunlight coming from infinity to a single point called focus.it produces intense heat to cook food easily.still using plane mirror on household level for solar cooker is foolishness.
In a solar oven what would make a better reflector tin foil or mirrors?
a mirror will be the best one to use
Large concave mirrors are used in solar furnaces Give reason?
The shape of concave mirrors catches and directs the sun light inward which provides greater heat retention. This allows the heating system to achieve a higher temperature and be better suited to heat your entire home. A flat or convex mirror would reflect a lot of the light outward, thus making those shapes less efficient for gathering solar heat.

Why Side mirror not heating in VW passat?
Is it just one mirror? I would look at a possible broken wire or heating element on the mirror. If it is both, I would look at a possible bad switch since it affects both mirrors.
How does fabric heat water?
One manner to achieve this would be conduction of solar energy that was radiated onto it. An example would be a black canvas bag full of water heating in the sun.
Which of the following would be considered a capital expenditure?
Installation of a solar heating system

How would you remove water from a solution of salt and water?
Heating it would evaporate the water
Which is cheaper solar power or wind energy?
Solar panels, or solar water heating is cheaper to produce than wind energy. You can put PV panels and a water heater on your roof for a few thousand (dollars, pounds, etc), but a 10 kW wind turbine (enough for one large home) would be 50 or 60 thousand.
Would it be fair to refer to wind energy as solar energy?
Ultimately, yes, since the reason there is wind in the first place is differential solar heating.
How would the heating curve for glass be different from the heating curve for water?
the glass is malleable

What would be an alternative energy source for heating and cooking and how would it protect the environment?
Electricity generated from renewable sources (solar, wind, water etc) would be an alternative energy source and would easily cover cooking and heating. It would protect the environment by reducing the amount of fossil fuel burnt, and also because it has no dangerous carbon dioxide emissions that are causing global warming.
