What else can I help you with?
How much of the energy in burning coal reaches the consumer as electricity?
One third of coal's energy reaches the consumer.
How much of the Sun's energy reaches the earth and why?
half a billionth
How much of the suns energy reaches the earth's surface?
its about just 1%
What grain has the highest amount of energy oats corn barley or wheat?
Oats has a slightly higher amount of energy than corn and wheat, and much more than barley. Oats is, however, much higher in fibre content than either corn, wheat or barley.
How much solar energy does an owl receive?
Directly, none, unless it is sleeping in sunlight during the day. However, indirectly, it receives all its energy from the sun. The mouse that it eats got energy from the corn it ate. The corn got its energy from the sun (photosynthesis).
How much of the energy stored in the corn gets passed on to you in burgers?
Well, isn't that a happy little question! When you enjoy a burger made from corn-fed beef, you're receiving a portion of the energy stored in the corn that the cows ate. It's like a beautiful cycle of energy flowing from the sun to the corn to the cows to you, creating a lovely connection between nature and your meal.
Would you receive more energy from corn by eating it direcly or by eating the same mass of beef from a cow that had been fed on corn?
The latter. Corn eaten as a meal, be it corn-on-the-cob or as a side-dish, can only give a person (human) so much energy and nutrients; basically it mostly acts as a gut-filler and not much else. We can get some protein and energy from it, but it doesn't stay in the stomach and get digested as thoroughly as meat does. Energy from meat is released slowly over time as the amino acid enzymes in the stomach break down the meat, giving us a long-term burn of energy to use. Corn or any fruit and vegetable, only acts as a quick-burst of energy, then decreases as soon as it came.
How much kinetic Energy does the ball have just when it reaches the ground?
The kinetic energy of the ball when it reaches the ground will depend on its velocity right at that moment. This can be calculated using the formula KE = 0.5 * m * v^2, where m is the mass of the ball and v is its velocity.
How much of the suns energy is actually received here on earth?
~.08
How much energy is in wotsits?
A single Wotsit contains approximately 11 calories. This energy comes mainly from carbohydrates, as Wotsits are primarily made of corn and other starches.
How much of our Suns energy make it all the way through the atmosphere to the surface of the earth?
About 50% of the Sun's energy that reaches Earth makes it through the atmosphere to the surface. The atmosphere absorbs and scatters some of this energy, with factors like clouds, aerosols, and gases influencing how much sunlight reaches the ground. The portion that does reach the surface is crucial for supporting life, driving weather patterns, and generating renewable energy.
In the food chain how much of the Sun's energy is lost as heat before it reaches a producer?
About 90% of the Sun's energy is lost as heat before it reaches a producer in the food chain. This loss occurs through processes such as reflection, absorption, and transmission in the Earth's atmosphere.
