Answer to Question 1

A single axis alt-azimuth tracker will have the horizontal-axis fixed to approximately the latitude measured from the horizontal and the vertical axis rotates at a rate of 1 rev/day (during the time the sun is up). A dual-axis tracker will have the horizontal axis adjust slightly each day to compensate for the sun's north-south motion and the vertical axis rotates at a rate of 1 rev/day (during the time the sun is up).

Answer to Question 2

A land breeze is created when the land cools more quickly than the water, which tends to occur in the fall and winter.

This occurs without any major symptoms until the high blood pressure becomes extreme. Regular blood pressure checks are an important method of catching hypertension before it can kill you.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
