Solar-powered cars use energy from the Sun to work. A panel on the car absorbs light energy from the Sun, which then generates a
n electric current. This electric current, in turn, allows the car to move. Which shows the correct order of energy transformations that take place in a solar-powered car?
<span>Radiation is taken in then presumably is immediately turned into electrical energy which also immediately is turned into mechanical energy or stored in the cars battery as chemical energy.</span>
When sun light is incident on the solar panel then the energy received by the sun is in the form of Solar energy.
This solar energy is then absorbed by the solar panel so that this energy is used to separate the charges in form of positive and negative charge array. This will form the electric potential and then it will be converted in form of electrostatic potential energy.
Finally this electric potential energy is converted into electric energy which is used to run the car.
so here correct order of energy transform is given as
