Solar Energy in Pakistan?

We Answered:

solar cells are really costly right now..i had the same requirement here in India and the panels for your requirement will cost around 60000 Rs..so better is use solar heater and ups

Why should we sign Nuclear deal?

We Answered:

Yes of course talks should be held about Nuclear power or any form of production that could lead to the lose of life of people.

Things to think of, what level of maintenance will the plant have
Would they try some experiment such as the men at Chernobyl done that caused the deaths of thousands
Nuclear power is not safe, how many cities are miles of land are not able to be used now for crops because of Nuclear tests or nuclear accidents.
What protection from fall out do neighbouring states have if something goes wrong.

Such as what is the level of Leukaemia in New Mexico and the Nation of Mexico that could be a result of the nuclear tests over the years. These are things that seem never to be mentioned anywhere.

Wasn't there a ship carrying nuclear waste gong all over the world a few years back trying to find somewhere to dump its cargo. Have not heard anything about that since, I do recall the French Navy, Irish Navy and about ten other countries just watched it and ordered it to keep moving on.
Wonder where she is now, wonder if as I expect they went to some third world country gave the government a few million and a Mercedes and dumped it on some beach.

How do YOU think we should BEST deal with the islamic terrorist threat (b4 they get US)? 10pts best answer?

We Answered:

Unfortunately, the islamic threat is already a reality in our country. An alternative to BLOWING UP THE ENTIRE MIDDLE EAST (although I had to pause with a satisfied smile on my face at the thought of it) would be to restrict ALL immigration 100%. That would help SOMEWHAT, until the muslim terrorists here die off.

why does American Foreign Policy auto-manifest as Military posturing ? Didn't the debate last night prove that?

We Answered:

Obama is about as close to being a Socialist as McCain is to being consistent!!

I have become convinced since joining yahoo that "Socialist": is simply a generic term of abuse levied at any politician who dares to suggest that perhaps the wealthy are a little better off than the rest of us and can afford to begin paying something like their fair share.

And yes I too was disappointed at the militaristic slant of Obama, but to be fair McCain has made such an issue out of calling him weak and lilly livered that electorally he had no choice but to go out hard on that topic.

It wasn't what we wanted him to say Subverter, but unfortunately it was just what millions of Americans wanted to hear.

Americans have been raised to believe that they are not safe unless they are pointing a gun at someone else. The tragedy is that the more gunboat diplomacy gets used the less secure is the whole world.

Come help me convince the rest if them will you?

Rosemary Said:

solar energy, i m totally ignorant in this field and don't know anything about it electronics.?

We Answered:

Yikes, that may be difficult considering you don't know much about electronics.

A very basic system would work something like this:

You find the total wattage of your PC, fan & light bulb. For the sake of simplicity lets assume it's about 500 watts. You then would need to either have a solar panel large enough to sustain 500 watts instantaniously, or you would get a smaller panel and hook it up to a bank of 12V batteries. The batteries would have to have enough storage power to run 500watts for 8 hours. Then you would have to buy an inverter to convert 12V DC to 120v AC.

This will only be cheap if you plan on it being a permanent solution over the course of a couple years. Otherwise it may be more cost affordable to buy a small gasoline style generator and use it as needed.
