The Intensity of solar radiation at the Earth's orbit is 1370 W/m2. However, because of the atmosphere, the curvature of the Ear

th, and rotation (night and day), the actual intensity at the Earth's surface is much lower. At this moment, let us assume the intensity of solar radiation is 750 W/m2. You have installed solar panels on your roof to convert the sunlight to electricity. A) If the area of your solar panels is 4 m2, How much power is incident on your array? Watts Submit Answer Tries 0/2 B) Unfortunately, solar panels are only about 20% efficent... Only 1/5 of the light is converted to electricity. This being the case, how much electrical power are you actually producing for your home at this moment?

Answer:

A. Power incident on panel = 3000W

B. Electrical power generated = 600W

Explanation:

Actual solar intensity I = 750W/m2

A) if area A of panel = 4m2, then,

Power incident on panel = I x A

P = 750 x 4 = 3000W

B) if panel efficiency is 20%,

Then,

Power generates = 0.2 x 3000 = 600W of electricity.

Answer:

a) 3000W

b) 600W

Explanation:

A) To solve this problem we have to use

P=IA

where I is the intensity of light and A is the area of our solar panels. By replacing we have

P=(750\frac{W}{m^2})(4m^2)=3000W

B) However we know that the panel only absorb 20% of the total power. Hence we have that the real power is

P_r=0.2IA=0.2(3000W)=600W

HOPE THIS HELPS!!

A truck traveling at a constant speed of 28 m/s passes a more slowly moving car. The instant the truck passes the car, the car b
choli [55]

Answer:

the velocity of car when it passes the truck is u = 16.33 m/s

Explanation:

given,

constant speed of truck  = 28 m/s

acceleration of car = 1.2 m/s²

passes the truck in 545 m

speed of the car when it just pass the truck = ?

time taken by the truck to travel 545 m

              time =\dfrac{distance}{speed}

              time =\dfrac{545}{28}

              time =19.46 s

velocity of the car when it crosses the truck

S = ut + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2

545= u\times 19.46 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times 1.2 \times 19.46^2

u = 16.33 m/s

the velocity of car when it passes the truck is u = 16.33 m/s

The amplitude of oscillation is the maximum distance between the oscillating weight and the equilibrium position. Determine the
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

The frequency does not depend on the amplitude for any (ideal) mechanical or electromagnetic waves.

In electromagnetism we have that the relation is:

Velocity = wavelenght*frequency.

So the amplitude of the wave does not have any effect here.

For a mechanical system like an harmonic oscillator (that can be used to describe almost any oscillating system), we have that the frequency is:  

f = (1/2*pi)*√(k/m)

Where m is the mass and k is the constant of the spring, again, you can see that the frequency only depends on the physical properties of the system, and no in how much you displace it from the equilibrium position.

This happens because as more you displace the mass from the equilibrium position, more will be the force acting on the mass, so while the "path" that the mass has to travel is bigger, the mas moves faster, so the frequency remains unaffected.
