Answer:

A and B are both requirements for a solar panel to generate usable current at home.

Explanation:

Solar panel operates through a group of cells, where each one of them captures/convert electrons making them move from one polarised region to another. The excited electrons can move from a region in excess of electrons (p region) to a region with a lack of electrons (n region).  

This physical effect of electron moving from one side to another creates what we know as current flow.

This current flow from a solar panel does not vary with time in a determined frequency, so it's constant. This is the definition of a DC current. Since the household devices work with AC (variable sinusoidal current Alternate Current) a converter DC to AC is required.

Due to the fact that the solar panels only operate in the day when they recibe direct sunlight, there is the need to have batteries to store the energy for the night and the times where the sunlight is not enough to provide enough electron flow.

masya89 [10]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

The correct answer is option C

When the ray of light pass from higher refractive index to lower refractive index then the light bend  away from the normal.

when the refracted ray is parallel to the boundary of the medium, θ₂ = 90°

and the incident angle θ₁

so, the angle  θc is known as the critical angle.

At critical angle the refracted ray becomes parallel to boundary surface.

A train is moving with a velocity of 70 km/h.
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

B: It is moving north.

Explanation:

We are told that a train is moving with a velocity of 70 km/h.

Now, we are also told that the positive direction is north.

This means that the train is moving in the northern direction.

We can't say if it is speeding up or not because we are not given the acceleration.

Thus, option B is correct

A dummy is fired vertically upward from a canon with a speed of 40 m/s. How long is the dummy in the air? What is the dummies maximum height?

v=u-at

0=40-10xt

t=4 secs


height = ut-1/2at^2

height= 40x4-1/2x10x4^2

height = 160-5x16

height=160-80=80m
