The average electricity consumption of a house in
Gainesville is known to be 1,036 kWh in a month
(One month = 30 days). They would like to install
solar panels of 30 % efficiency to generate this
electricity. Given that the average solar power
density in Gainesville is 5.47 kWh/m2/day, how much
surface area must the panels occupy? Calculate the
result in m² but do not write the unit. Round off you
E swer to a whole number (zero decimal place.)
Estimate the number of people in the world who are suffering from the common cold on any
given day. (Remember that a person suffers from a cold for about a week, and assume that
the average person catches a cold twice a year. The population of Earth is approximately seven
billion.)

- You are evaluating two biodegradable polymers, Polymer A and Polymer B, for material to release hormonal birth control. The hormone drug is attached to the polymer backbone and drug is released as the polymer degrades. You collect the following data on drug released from the polymer every 5 days over a 30-day study. State the mechanism by which Polymer A and Polymer B degrades and calculate the rate constant, k, of degradation for Polymer A and Polymer B to 2 significant digits.
