forecast future results (Managerial accounting, 2010). The current ratio provides an indication of how liquid a company is. Liquidity indicates how well a company can cover its current debts. Wal-Mart’s current ratio in 2009 was .88 and in 2010 was .87. The fact that the company’s current ratio barely changed indicates that its liquidity has remained constant. Because its current ratio is less than one, however, the company needs more than its current

sun’s heat. The second process is the photovoltaic process Photovoltaic (PV) panels capture the light emitted by the sun and convert this energy into usable electricity. They do this by exciting the electrons in the solar energy which produces direct current (DC) electricity. DC electricity isn’t usable for most home needs. The DC electricity must go through a conversion process in a mechanical device known as an inverter. There many advantages of solar energy. The first one is Saving you money . After

"Balance of Payments is a statistical statement that summarizes transactions between residents and nonresidents during a period. The balance of payments comprises the current account, the capital account, and the financial account. "Together, these accounts balance in the sense that the sum of the entries is conceptually zero." The current account consists of the goods and services account, the primary income account and the secondary income account. The financial account records transactions that involve

31, 32, 44) 1. A proton beam in an accelerator carries a current of 125 A. If the beam is incident on a target, how many protons strike the target in a period of 23.0 s? 2. A copper wire has a circular cross section with a radius of 1.25 mm. (a) If the wire carries a current of 3.70 A, find the drift speed of the electrons in this wire. 3. An aluminum wire having a cross-sectional area equal to 4.00 10–6 m2 carries a current of 5.00 A. The density of aluminum is 2.70 g/cm3. Assume each

enormously. No only does the output current fall, but the output voltage also decreases. Many of the solar panels drop to below the 13.6v needed to charge a 12v battery and as soon as this occurs, the charging current drops to ZERO. This means they become useless as soon as the brightness of the sun goes away. Our project cannot work miracles but it will convert voltages as low as 3.5v into 13.6v and keep delivering a current to the battery. Obviously the current will be much lower than the maximum

bu used for wind, hydro and photovoltaic systems. Also, energy that is stored within the lead-acid battery can be utilizrd as DC current for use in DC appliances such as those found in automotive mobile homes. If Alternating Current (AC) appliances are in place then an inventer must be used to transfer the 12 volts of DC current into the standard 110 volts of AC current for usage by these appliances. Pedal power is the source of getting energy from humans. It can be described as the transfer of
