Photovoltaic cells are the most efficient means of converting solar energy to electricity. Option b is correct.

<h3>What is a cell?</h3>

A cell is a voltage and current-producing device that consists of a single anode and cathode separated by an electrolyte.

One or more cells can make up a battery. One cell, for example, is one AA battery.

Light intensity on a solar cell is often measured in "suns," with one sun roughly equivalent to 1 kW/m².

Concentrated sunlight improves the ratio of current generated while the device is lighted vs when it is dark, hence enhancing output voltage and efficiency.

Photovoltaic cells are the most efficient means of converting solar energy to electricity.

Hence, option b is correct.

To learn more about the cell refer to:

A system of mass 13 kg undergoes a process during which there is no work, the elevation decreases by 50 m, and the velocity incr
marin [14]

Answer:

The change in kinetic energy is 4.3875 kJ

The amount of energy transferred by heat for the process is -66.98 kJ

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the system, m = 13 kg

change in height, Δh = -50 m

initial velocity, u = 15 m/s

final velocity, v = 30 m/s

change in internal energy per mass, ΔU = -5 kJ/kg

The change in kinetic energy is given by;

ΔK.E = K.E₂ - K.E₁

ΔK.E = ¹/₂mv² - ¹/₂mu²

ΔK.E = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

ΔK.E = ¹/₂ ₓ 13 (30² - 15²)

ΔK.E = 4387.5 J

ΔK.E = 4.3875 kJ

The amount of energy transferred by heat for the process;

Q = W + ΔP.E + ΔK.E + ΔU

Where;

ΔP.E = mgΔh

ΔP.E = 13 x 9.8 x (-50)

ΔP.E = -6370 J = -6.37 kJ

W = 0

ΔU = -5kJ/kg x 13kg

ΔU = -65 kJ

Q = W + ΔP.E + ΔK.E + ΔU

Q = 0 + (-6.37) + (4.3875) + (-65)

Q = -66.98 kJ

OleMash [197]

That ratio is 2 .

<h3>What is ratio?</h3>

A ratio is the  comparison of the  two numbers bydivision.

Taking the first two outputs, or the  -1/8 and -1/4, we can divide not the second one by the first one to find the

ratio:

-1/4-1/8

When dividing fractions, we multiply by the reciprocal:

-1/4x-8/1

To multiply fractions, multiply straight across:

(-1x-8)/(4x1) 8/4=2
