Still nothing from the spamming dipshit wannabe teacher?

Is this problem too hard for you to figure out, spammer?

Since you don't know any real physics, here is the answer for you, spammer:

About 8 kJ with 100% efficiency.

That means that if one live in Hilo, one of the rainiest places in the
US, a 6.2 in/hr storm would generate about 15 W (again with 100% efficienc)
for each square meter of collector.

Or, in other words, yet another worthless spam from the cut and paste
spam champ.
