What materials are used on solar panels to allow them to produce electricity?

1 answer:

6 0

Rays of sunlight hit the solar panel and are
absorbed by semi-conducting materials such as silicon.
Photovoltaic cells are
usually made from silicon, an excess material that constitutes more
than 28 percent of the Earth's crust.
These cells are created by bonding two
wafers of silicon that are connected to metal wires
The top water is silicon is thin and bottom is thicker the wafers produce electricity as absorb solar radiation
hope it helps

Answer:

nπ + π/2 for any integer n

Explanation:

Since destructive interference occurs every odd multiple of half wavelength, that is π/2, 3π/2, 5π/2 where the interference is half wavelength and in general, (n + 1/2)π where n is an integer. So, nπ + π/2 for any integer n

What area of earth contains semi-solid rock and lava?

ioda

Below the crust is the mantle, a dense, hot layer of semi-solid rock approximately 2,900 km thick. The mantle, which contains more iron, magnesium, and calcium than the crust, is hotter and denser because temperature and pressure inside the Earth increase with depth.

Hope this helped! :)

Heat in the amount of 100 kJ is transferred directly from a hot reservoir at 1320 K to a cold reservoir at 600 K. Calculate the

Zinaida [17]

Answer:0.0909 kJ/K

Explanation:

Given

Temperature of hot Reservoir $T_h=1320 K$

Temperature of cold Reservoir $T_l=600 K$

Heat of 100 kJ is transferred form hot reservoir to cold reservoir

Hot Reservoir is Rejecting heat therefore $Q_1=-100 kJ$

Heat is added to Reservoir therefore $Q_2=100 kJ$

Entropy change for system

$\Delta s=\frac{Q_1}{T_1}+\frac{Q_2}{T_2}$

$\Delta s=\frac{-100}{1320}+\frac{100}{600}$

$\Delta s=-0.0757+0.1666=0.0909 kJ/K$

As entropy change is Positive therefore entropy Principle is satisfied

An eagle flying at 15 m/s has 600 J of kinetic energy. About how much is the eagles mass?

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

5.33kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Velocity of eagle = 15m/s

Kinetic energy of the eagle = 600J

Unknown:

Mass of the eagle = ?

Solution:

The kinetic energy of any body is the energy due to the motion of a body. There are different forms of kinetic energy some of which are thermal, mechanical, electrical energy.

The formula of kinetic energy is given as;

Kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2}$ m v²
