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

Which atoms have the highest electronegativity?

Ronch [10]

Answer:

Note that there is little variation among the transition metals. Electronegativities generally decrease from top to bottom within a group due to the larger atomic size. Of the main group elements, fluorine has the highest electronegativity (EN = 4.0) and cesium the lowest (EN = 0.79).

A common carnival ride, called a gravitron, is a large r = 11 m cylinder in which people stand against the outer wall. the cylin

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The minimum speed is 14.53 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

r = 11 m

Friction coefficient = 0.51

Suppose we need to find the minimum speed, that the cylinder must make a person move at to ensure they will stick to the wall

When frictional force becomes equal to or greater than the weight of person

Then, he sticks to the wall

We need to calculate the minimum speed

Using formula for speed

$f_{s}=\mu N\geq mg$

Where, $N =\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$\mu\times\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\gep mg$

$v^2\geq\dfrac{gr}{\mu}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{9.8\times11}{0.51}}$

$v=14.53\ m/s$

Hence, The minimum speed is 14.53 m/s.

4 (JAMB) The diagram below shows a light see-saw, which is balanced horizontally by the weights W₁, W2, W3, W4 in the positions

damaskus [11]

The equation that represents the principle of the lever balance is:

W₁ + W₂ = W3 + W4; option A.

<h3>What is the principle of moments?</h3>

The principle of moments states when a body is in equilibrium, the sum of the clockwise moment about a point equals the sum of anticlockwise moment about that point.

A see-saw represents a balanced system of moments.

The sum of clockwise moment = The sum of anticlockwise moments.

Assuming W1 and W2 are clockwise moments and W3 and W4 are anticlockwise moments.

The equation will b: W₁ + W₂ = W3 + W4

In conclusion, a balanced see-saw illustrates the principle of the lever balance.
