I’m entering a go kart in my 5th grade science fair, and yes I know that the school year hasn’t started yet, but I like building, so I just started working, and I needed something that makes my go kart unique. Now, if you’re going to send me an answer saying something like,”Why don’t you just do it yourself?” don’t even bother! I don’t have that much time to deal with that stuff. The main point is, if you’re not going to answer the direct question, don’t even bother typing one.

can solar panels “have” money coming to you to pay them off?

they say that they will pay for themselves yet my familiy is tightly streatched like we only have a free 20$ a week from my job. my parents money is instanly swollowed up by debt. we can gamble on solar panels if they will bring money into our pockets so we can pay things off. im worried that if we buy a solar panel good enough to power a 300$ a month house and it doesnt reverse the dial. we…are… in-bind!!

Whats the exact job description for finding new forms of energy like hydrogen and solar?

electric — Sun, 01 Jan 2012 11:01:37 +0000

I’m a high school student thats looking at future career options… My whole life, i’ve always enjoyed building contraptions like catupults, custom bikes and other stuff and also enjoy fixing up old bikes and t.v’s… stuff like that…

I’ve looked into becoming an engineer of some sort… and with the world energy crisis, i’ve become interested in developing a product to solve the energy crisis ( Ex: Hydrogen cars, Solar Power, Wind Energy )… my question is though…. what type of engineering is that considered?? Mechanical? Civil? If its even considered engineering…

sry the question is so long… thanks in advance

TV Commercial Project in school encouraging people to use solar energy! Need Fun Facts..?

electric — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 08:04:12 +0000

I have to make a tv commercial is school encouraging people to use solar power.

so i need facts
the suns energy can light up the entire planet 100 times over (Not true but i want that kind of thing)
or how its not damaging the enviroment or something

what is the efficiency of the best solar cells today? Also, is biodiesel feasible considering limited land ?

electric — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 23:01:41 +0000

With decreasing oil reserves, alternative energy sources have to be found, while fusion power, if attainable is very promising, it is far from reality (perhaps 20 years if the ITER project is successful). Biodiesel is exciting too. but it would be impossible to grow so many plants to cater to the needs of millions of cars. Besides, we could probably do a better job than plants at capturing solar energy.

How do I become a Solar system installer and Distributor? What kind of training do I need?
