Correct. School in general and science in particular are all about the realization that, if one wishes to get a meaningful answer, one must learn to form a meaningful question.



Besides: I put 60% more effort into my response than you did into your question! :-p

Also besides: PF has rules about posts. (That's why there's now over 250,000, including you) One rule is that we must assess whether this is a homework question. We can't do that with what you told us, so we can't answer your question.


Have you considered Googling "normal law of errors proof"?

Thread 'Why can't Solar panels be hemispherical, or a curved strip type?'

comparing a flat solar panel of area 2π r² and a hemisphere of the same area, the hemispherical solar panel would only occupy the area π r² of while the flat panel would occupy an entire 2π r² of land. wouldn't the hemispherical version have the same area of panel exposed to the sun, occupy less land space and can therefore increase the number of panels one land can have fitted? this would increase the power output proportionally as well. when I searched it up I wasn't satisfied with...
