Temperature graph for solar
Earth ScienceAsked by: Alicia Starvaggi What temperature is optimal for solar panels? about 77°F Solar panels are generally tested at about 77°F and are rated to perform at peak efficiency between 59°F and 95°F. However, solar panels may get as hot as 149°F during the summer. When the surface temperature of your solar panels gets this

How does quartz form in calcite veins?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Chris Follette Under normal temperature-pressure conditions silica / quartz precipitates or dissolves extremely slowly, but at higher pressures and temperatures the kinetics of crystallization are dramatically accelerated. So precipitation of quartz and calcite is actually quite common. How is a quartz vein formed? The simplest type of a quartz vein is the filling

Would oceans regenerate if removed?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Debbie Contreras Does the earth make new water? Over millions of years, much of this water is recycled between the inner Earth, the oceans and rivers, and the atmosphere. This cycling process means that freshwater is constantly made available to Earth’s surface where we all live. Volcanoes release massive amounts of water from
