Questions And Answers On Cheap Energy

Joseph asks…

Can Bill Gates show the world how to get cheap energy?

He can’t even produce an affordable, reliable, and secure (protected against viruses, spam ware etc) version or Windows. We’re still paying a fortune for Windows with it’s service packs.

How can he show the world how to get cheap energy. He claims what he really wants is clean energy at half its current cost. To do that, he said, we’ll need new technology.

greenenergy answers:

That man is an island unto himself, i don’t care how much money he has.
The greatest inventions, and world changing ideas into reality came from people,
with scientific morality and God sence of purpose. Anybody who would hire
Balmer, is not on the side of righeousness, and the american dream
of cheap energy. Hogwash, that is a wolf in sheepskin. I’ll bring you
cheap energy and hire balmer too deliver it. There is no energy that exists on this
planet or any other planet that is cheap. Try converting the sun/EXPENSIVE,Nuclear/EXPENSIVE
Wind?THERE IS NONE OR ENOUGH,Hydroelectric/EXPENSIVE>FISH,oil/EXPENSIVE and
running out,electric cars or hybrids/EXPENSIVE.

Unless he’s teaming up with Opera winfrey, too buy us all pedal bikes,
he’s out of touch with reality. He going too give, other countries his philantrophy,
with our money,CHEAPLY! Did I say that right. He is a nut case. He has no concept
of reality, behind a lcd too long.

Questions And Answers On Solar Power Photography

Charlie asks…

How to calculate power consumption?

I would like to setup a solar + Battery solution for time lapse photography.
How do I tell what battery i would need to run my camera during night time hours and solar panel to charge it during daylight hours.
I was looking at this package http://store.sundancesolar.com/20wadosoenst.html However, how will I know (or approximate) how much the battery will drain while no light is available and how long it will take to recharge to full capacity?

Any help or starting point is appreciated.
Thanks very much for the info!!! this is awesome.

So am I right to calculate that the maximum draw in this system could be ~3amps before draining off more than can be replenished??
Which would be….4W?

greenenergy answers:

You need to know the power consumption of your apparatus to begin with, but I think that will be very modest compared to the type of things that page you linked to says it can do. This is even more true if your camera supports time-lapse shots since then it puts itself in stand-by mode while it waits to take the shots. If it doesn’t, then the power consumption may go up fast…

What you have to know to evaluate that set-up is two things:

- for electric stuff power is voltage times current,
- batteries are measured by the amount of charge it can hold, and charge is current times time.

So, if the battery can hold 32amp-hour it means it can sustain a 1Amp current for 32 hours, or 2Amp for 16 hours, etc, you get the idea. To find the current you’ll be draining from the battery you divide the power consumption (the 1W above) by the battery voltage (let’s assume 12V, the site is not clear on this) which gives aproximately 0.083Amp. So that battery can last for 32/0.083 = 384 hours, which seems to be enough.

Of course you need to recharge the battery, and if your power consumption were greater than what you can replenish it, it would be no good. But from the site it says the solar panel can provide 6amp-hour a day, which for the 1W power consumption gives 6/0.083 = 72 hours > 24 hours, so you’d be safe.

Now, if the power consumption were 5W then you’d be in trouble…

Assuming you want to use only the power you can replenish (taht is, you want to run the whole thing for days), the calculations are as following:

According to the site, the solar panel can provide 6 amp-hour a day (working with 5 hours of sunlight, I guess, which can be a pretty good estimate since you may have cloudy days, the position of the sun may have to be more or less straight up, etc). That means if you’re leaving the camera on continuously (i.e., 24 hours a day) you can only use 6 amp-hour / 24 hours = 0.25 amp, which works out to a power consumption of 0.25 amp * 12 V = 3W (remember power is voltage times current, and the battery voltage is 12V). Thus, 3W is the most you can use *continuously*. If your camera can put itself in a saving mode (or a stand-by mode) and wake-up only when it needs to get the shot, the power consumption should go down a lot. So, assuming in stand-by mode the consumption is small and you need to shoot only a few seconds, say 5 seconds, each minute, then you’d be operating in total only 1/12 (5sec/60 sec/min) of a day, which means two hours. In this case, you have 6 amp-hour / 2 hours = 3 amp, and the total power available would be 3amp * 12V = 36W.

Things a re a little more complicated due to several factors: the power consumption in stand-by mode may be small but not negligible, and it may add up, you probably will have some power drain depending on how you connect your camera to the solar panel, etc, but if do the calculations leaving some allowance for these things you should be ok.

Questions And Answers On Free Energy Equation

Steve asks…

In the free energy equation. ΔG = ΔH – TΔS, the symbol T refers to?

In the free energy equation. ΔG = ΔH – TΔS, the symbol T refers to. (A) time in seconds. (C) Celsius temperature. (B) time in hours. (D) Kelvin temperature

greenenergy answers:

Temperature in kelvins

John asks…

How do you solve for temperature with a Gibbs Free Energy equation?

The question:

For CdO(s) SO3(g) => CdSO4(s)
DHo = -279.4 kJ
DSo = -118.4 J/K

What is the temperature at which Keq is 1.0E4?

Answer is 1433 K

How do you get this answer and which equations did you use?

greenenergy answers:

DGo = DHo – TDSo
DGo = -RTln(Keq)

Plug the first into the second:
-RTln(Keq) = DHo – TDSo

Rearrange:
ln(Keq) = -DHo/RT + DSo/R
ln(Keq) – DSo/R = -DHo/RT
T = -DHo / [Rln(Keq) - DSo]
T = -(-279,400)/[8.3145 ln(1.0E04) - (-118.4)]
T = 1433K

Cindy asks…

What does the 2.303 stand for in Gibbs free energy equation?

In the equation:
ΔG = -RT(lnKeq)

when you try to switch the equation to get Keq, you get:

logKeq= -ΔG/ (-2.303) RT

I’m confused about where this 2.303 comes from. Is it a constant? Thanks, in advance.

greenenergy answers:

The number 2.303 is used for the conversion between natural logarithmsand common logarithms. Natural logs are based on the number base e which has a value of 2.71828. Common logs are based upon a base 10. So, you can convert from natural logs to common logs by multiplying 2.303xlogN = ln N.
For example 2.303xlog 9 = 2.197; ln 9 = 2.197
From a consideration of the equations you are using you have converted from lnKeq to logKeq. The factor of 2.303 allows you to make this conversion without changing the value of the equation.

Shelley asks…

In this time of energy conservation, why aren’t more states creating rail systems?

The trains on the East Coast are efficient, fast and affordable, and mostly electric. Why doesn’t this exist between more cities in the central states?

greenenergy answers:

Unfortunately, the failure of rail transport in the US is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Ever since we abandoned the railroads (Amtrak’s continued existence barely counts) after WWII, the public mind in general has concluded that Americans have definitively chosen the automobile as the primary means of transportation, and that nobody would ride the train if it existed. If lawmakers don’t expect anyone to ride the train, the rail system won’t get built, so nobody can ride the train.

Questions And Answers On Free Energy

Helena asks…

free energy?

i need help can any one define “free energy” also known as gibbs free energy assosiated with activation energy without plagerising. i dont understand it at all but need to define it!!!

greenenergy answers:

I think its the energy that is free to be used (unlike chemical energy, kinetic energy, etc.) and I’m pretty sure when you use it some of it is converted into heat energy

Mandy asks…

Free energy?

Ok, here is the problem…
As shown in the equation below, nitrogen oxide, NO, is common pollutant that is produced by the reaction of nitrogen and oxygen gases. Since these gases are the major components of air, nitrogen oxideresults when air is heated in furnaces, motor engine cylinders, or other high temperature combustion areas.
N2 (g) + O2 (g) 2 NO (g)
A. Given that the standard enthalpy of formation for NO2 (g) is 90.25 KJ/mole and using the absolute entropies listed below, calculate the free energy change for this reaction at 25 degrees celcius. Is this reaction product favores at 25 degrees celcius?
Absolute entropies
N2 (g) 191.5 J/mol times K O2 (g) 205.0 J/mole times K
NO (g) 210.7 J/mol times K

B. If the reaction is not product-favored at 25 degrees celcius, determine under what conditions it would be product favored.
Show ALL work.

Thanks for any help I can get!

greenenergy answers:

A.

Free energy = ΔG

entropy change = ΔS°

ΔS° = ΔS products – ΔS reactants

ΔS° = 24.9

ΔG° = ΔH° – TΔS°
ΔG° = (90.25×1000) – (25+273.15)x24.9
ΔG° = 82.83 KJ/mol

no this reaction will not work at 25 celcius

B.

A reaction becomes therodynamically favourable when ΔG ≥ 0

ΔG° = ΔH° – TΔS°
0 = (90.25×1000) – T x 24.9
T= 3624.5K

only at very high tempratures does the reaction proceed.

Ken asks…

What is the difference between standard gibbs free energy change and gibbs free energy change?

I am confused between standard gibbs free energy change and gibbs free energy change. Aren’t both the change in gibbs free energy of the system when reactants are converted completely, or 100 %, to products? Why does the change in gibbs free energy of the reaction change as the reactioin progresses, but the standard gibbs free energy change is the same no matter what.

I need a qualitative explanation more than a quantitative one. Thanks!

Questions And Answers On Affordable Energy Concepts

Richard asks…

03102011-CP – Cerebral Palsy Day.?

Symptoms of Cerebral Palsy

The symptoms of Cerebral Palsy depend upon the location and degree of damage to the brain. In mild instances, only a slight awkwardness might be evidenced. In severe cases, children may be unable to use their limbs, completely dependent on caregivers, or profoundly mentally retarded. There are several general categories of CP, which include include spastic, athetoid, ataxic, and mixed varieties.

70-80% of CP cases are considered spastic. In spastic cerebral palsy, the patients muscles are permantently contracted. Patients with leg spasticity often develop “scissors-gait”—in which their knees bend inward and nearly touch while walking.
10-20% of CP cases are athetoid. Unlike patients with spastic CP, affected muscles of patients with athetoid CP fail to contract normally, often resulting in uncontrollable drooling.
5-10% of CP patients have ataxic CP. Primarily, ataxics have poor balance and depth perception.
A small percentage of patients with CP will display a combination of spastic, athetoid, and ataxic symptoms. This is known as mixed CP.

Most patients with CP have motor impairment in their legs, but many also have impaired arm movement. To indicate which limbs are affected most, the terms diplegia, paraplegia, quadriplegia, and hemiplegia are used.

In paraplegia, the legs but not the arms are affected.
In hemiplegia the limbs on one side of the body are affected.
In diplegia, both legs are affected as are both arms, but to a lesser degree than the legs.
In quadriplegia, all four limbs are affected equally.
Acupressure techniques & Indian Natural Remedies can be tried safely. How?
In terms of acupressure concept–CP is an offshoot of blocked energy in the brain and spinal cord.

TARGET THERAPY* for any incurable disease including cancer, HIV/AIDS, Thalassemia, Muscular Dystrophy, Autism, Tinnitus, CP etc., —it should aim @ [3] steps.
1. Removal of toxins from all internal organs & purging through Normal Drainage systems, feces, urine, menses[females], skin, lungs and vomiting.
• 2. Activating all the internal organs to make each & every organ to function up to optimum levels.
3. Supplying vitamins, nutrients, micro-nutrients, minerals, trace elements for invigorating the entire Immune system to produce antibodies.


• Acupressure techniques & Indian Natural Remedies [comprising Ayurveda, Homeopathy, Bio-chemic salts, Herbal Remedies, Yoga/Meditation, Magneto-therapy, Sidha, etc.,] can meet all the requirements.
• Acupressure Techniques—NO SIDE EFFECTS. NO HOSPITALIZATION. Costs Affordable even by the poor. An acupressure Therapeutist can, not only diagnose any disease instantaneously, but, also prevent/treat any disease & or the affected organ[s] with the aid of Indian natural remedies. All stipulated instructions must be followed most religiously. The % of success depends upon the extent of compliance.
4. U may try acupressure techniques and natural remedies strictly for 45 days and If U find any perceivable improvements, U may continue it for another 45 days and so on until U have total cure.

Any expert in Ayurveda, Homeopathy, Sidha, Unani, can offer remedies to benefit scores of thousands of victims of CP?

greenenergy answers:

Sounds like you are quite the expert yourself!
The things to add to your list of things that benefit is Reflexology and Kinesiology.

Lynn asks…

Tell me if this invention would be marketable.?

I am sure many people deal with the issue of constantly having to cary around a laptop power cable because you lose your charge. For example you have your charger upstairs but carry your laptop downstairs then you get the message that your power is low and have to go get your cable. my solution is to make a laptop that can recharge itself somewhat. The concept is kind of like a hybrid car.

The laptop would be recharged by key taps or mouse scrolls. i will focus on key taps here. everytime you press a key down it converts that energy into power for the laptops battery. I do not yet know what devices could preform such a task or if the energy drawn would even be enough to charge it at all. i am assuming that from 2 hours of usage you could generate enough power for another 30 minutes or so. There could also just be an extra key you can press when you have nothing to type but desperately need the power. Would you be interested in such a product? do you think this is possible? i have already field for a patent, but it remains to be seen if it can be done in an affordable manner. If anybody would like to join in on this and has knowledge of the components necessary let me know. Thanks.
i couldn’t agree more with poster #1. i will be seriously smacking myself in the head when this is made by hp or something in the near future and i missed out on the opportunity to revolutionize the computer industry.

greenenergy answers:

If they came out with an invention with that for a laptop, I would pay so much money for it. The only problem is, pressing the keys doesn’t create that much energy.

You would also have to have some type of battery that could hold a very small charge because it would take a lot of pressing to make enough power for a laptop to run.

What may be possible would be to invent something like a disk that is spun when the keys are pressed, therefore making energy with the spinning.

It is a great idea, and something that is bound to come out in the future, but good luck with it and I hope you are the one to invent it. It will defiantly be HUGE with large computer companies such as HP, Dell, and Gateway, who would possibly pay hundreds of thousands to have your brilliant idea in their systems.

Questions And Answers On 5 Ways To Generate Internet Income

Nancy asks…

I am attempting to start an Internet radio station geared towards opensource music. Can anyone help me?

I’m attempting to form an internet radio where opensource musicians can share their work and receive donations from those individuals who wish to support their art. However, I need donations in order to simply get the thing started, and am not having any luck. I’m not seeking donations here, only asking what the best way to start generating an income in order to get the site off the ground, as well as advice on how to effectively attract opensource musicians. So far, I can’t get any advice out of anyone and it’s getting very frustrating.

The plan is to have artist pages (somewhat like Newgrounds) with PayPal donation buttons for each individual artist, as well as a donation button for the site as a whole. I’d take a 5% commission on individual donations, and anything donated to the site as a whole would be split up among all artists who were active when the donation was made (5% of that figure also being retained for overhead). Is this reasonable? Please help!

greenenergy answers:

Contact people who are supporting opensource artists in other ways. See if they will help you get started as a partnership. The site CDBaby comes to mind. They can handle the CD side and you can be their radio presence. Win/Win for both of them.

Aside from claiming bankruptcy or robbing a bank…what else can I do, I’m at the end of my rope, my marriage is teetering, and its all because of money and lack thereof. I need help and quick before I loose my house, cars and/or family…Please

greenenergy answers:

Do not file for bankruptcy yet. Bankruptcy won’t fix the problems that got you into this mess. Follow Dave Ramsey’s Baby Steps and create a budget.

To help you, we’ll need to know several things. Actually, we don’t need to know them, but you will need to write this out for yourself if you don’t want us to know. You need to make a monthly budget and stick to it every month. You most likely got into this mess through some poor decisions. Now that you know what doesn’t work, try something that does!

To start:
1. What is your Annual household income?

Take this number, divide it by 12, and then multiply it by 0.7 (to account for taxes). This will give you approximately your actual “take home pay”. For example, if your Annual household income is 60,000, then divided by 12 it equals 5,000, and then multiplied by 0.7 equals 3,500.

2. How much is your monthly house payment? If this is more than 25% of your take home pay, you have too much house and will need to downgrade. If your house is worth less than what you owe on the mortgage, you will have to sit down with your bank and discuss a short sale and sign a note for the difference. For example, let’s say that with the 60,000 income in the example (3,500 take home pay) you realize that your house payment is $1500. Well, 0.25 of 3500 is 875. This means that your house payment is almost double of what you should be able to afford! You’re “house poor”. Let’s say that your $1500 house payment is trying to pay a house that’s worth $240,000, but if you sell your house, you’d only get $220,000. You will have to sell the house for $220,000, then sign a note to the bank for the remaining $20,000. Then, you can buy maybe a $140,000 house with a monthly payment of $875. You’ll be in much better shape, and will have enough money to pay off part of the $20,000 loan as well.

3. How much is owed on each car? The same thing goes with the car as does the house. If you are upside down on the cars, sell them to get the best price you can for them, then get a loan for the difference. Example, let’s say your cars together are worth 40,000, but you can only sell them for $30,000. Get a loan for $16,000 and use 10,000 to make up the difference to the car companies, then use the remaining $6000 to buy two reliable USED cars outright. You will have no car payments then, only a small loan payment on 16,000 instead of on 40,000. Plus you’ll save a ton of money on insurance. Eventually, your cars values should total no more than half of your gross yearly income. For example, in this 60,000 per year example, you could eventually own two cars that total 30,000. But for now, stick with the $6000 cars so you can pay down your other debt. It’s just a car, and it needs to get you from point A to point B. Two $3,000 cars will DEFINITELY do that – and will free up HUNDREDS of dollars from your monthly budget. $40,000 in cars on a $60,000 income would make you “car poor”.

3. Create your budget. This is going to be uncomfortable, but you can do it. Start it this way.
A. Food. This DOES NOT mean pizza, or mcdonald’s, or restaurant food of any kind. Ever. These are tough times and you’ve got to sacrifice. This is a can of beans and a bag of rice! It’s not soda and beer – it’s milk and juice. Keep your family healthy, and keep it cheap! Find some cheap recipes – chili and rice goes a long way, or peanut butter and jelly, etc. You might even want to get a blender and make your own baby food to save money.
B. Lights and water. Pay your electric bill and conserve all you can. Pay your water bill and conserve all you can. Turn them off when you don’t use them. Don’t use air conditioning and keep your heater as low as possible – like 65 or lower (keeping the babies warm of course).
C. Housing. See above to find out if your mortgage payment is too much.
D. Transportation costs. After you sell your cars, you won’t have a car payment. This will include gas, insurance, and a monthly amount to save up for repairs.
E. Clothing. Second hand or bargain clothes only! I haven’t bought clothes in years. I may be out of style, but I’m not broke!
F. Health Care. You’ve got to be healthy to go work, right? Get your deductible amounts and prescriptions here.

Note that this DOES NOT include phones, and especially not cable TV. What’s more important – feeding your family, or watching the latest episode of CSI? If you need to, get a single land line phone for under $20 per month. I’ve seen people with a $300 a month cellphone bill wonder why they have no money every month.

Everything beyond this is your discretionary income. Take a few months to save $1000 in an Emergency Fund to cover life’s unexpected problems (broken refrigerator, toilet, washing machine), then throw the rest of the money at your smallest debt (example, your overdue gas bill). When that’s gone, attack the next one. Keep going until you have no debt whatsoever

Questions And Answers On Free Energy News

Helena asks…

What’s the best way to get the news about nearly-free energy electric cars out to Third World countries?

Canada, says that Revived Batteries could provide nearly-free energy to Third World countries, for people who won’t be able to afford the $60,000+ electric cars. As the newspaper writers said, this is one of the solutions to global warming and climate change, and these Vancouver guys are fans of Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” and “Who Killed The Electric Car”.

This info should be passed to appropriate agencies in other countries because the guys in Vancouver might be interested in teaching people to do this.

The fulltext of the article is below, as well as links to the two
newspaper articles.

You’re going to want to start changing perceptions in the countries that use the most fossil fuels like China, the US and Europe. The third world might be burning a little coal but they’re not using too much else in the way of gas, natural gas etc…

Marie asks…

whats all this I keep hearing about free energy?

Whatever it is it would be bad news for the fossil fuel industry. But what the hell is it?
Thanks, this has been bugging me all day today.

greenenergy answers:

There really is no such thing as “free” energy. But once the expense of an alternative energy device is installed and in the time that it has payed for itself in energy savings, then the energy from it can be considered free energy.
