It is possible to convert radiant energy into electrical energy using photovoltaic cells. Assuming equal efficiency of conversio

n, would infrared or ultraviolet radiation yield more electrical energy on a per-photon basis?

Finger [1]3 years ago

Answer:

Ultraviolet radiation would yield more electrical energy

Explanation:

The reason for the ultraviolet to generate more energy is that there would be getting more electrons per unit of time the photovoltaic cell, due to the higher frequency of the ultraviolet in comparison with the infrared radiation.

The infrared spectrum goes from 300 GHz (10^9 Hertz) to 400 THz or (10^12 Hertz).

The ultraviolet spectrum goes from 800 THz to 30.000 THz or (10^12 Hertz). This kind of radiation is responsible for skin burn from the sun and it´s the “ most usable” part from the sunlight in a photovoltaic cell.

A wire with radius 23 cm has a current of 7 A which is distributed uniformly through its cross sectional area. If you were to us
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

The magnetic induction of the magnetic field is  0.0005293 mT

Explanation:

Data given

I = 7 A = the total current in the wire

r = 23 cm = the radius of the wire = 0.23 meter

r' = 2cm = the measurement point, which should be inside the wire = 0.02 meter

Let's consider the current density is constant in the wire, ⇒  the current enclosed is a function of the enclosed area

I(enclosed) = Jπ r ²

we can  consider the current density  as the total current over the whole area:

I(enclosed) = I / (πr ²)  * πr' ²

I(enclosed) = (I* r'²)/ (r ²)  

with I =  total current in the wire = 7A

With r = the radius of wire = 0.23 meter

with r' = the distance of point from the center of wire  0.02 meter

We plug this into ampere's law:

∮ *B *dl =μ 0  * (I* r'²)/ (r ²)  

with B = Magnetic flux density (in Tesla) or magnetic induction

with dl = an infinitesimal element (a differential) of the curve C

with µ0 = the magnectic constant =  4π*10^−7 H/m

We can simplify this, by using an Amperian loop can write this as:

B *( 2 π r') =  μ 0  * (I* r'²)/ (r ²)  

Because the circumference of a circle is  2 π r , when we integrate over length at a distance  r ′  from the center of wire whose crossection is a circle we get  2 π r ′

When we isolate B, we get:

B = µo *(Ir'/2 π r ²)

B =  4π*10^−7 * ((7*0.02)/2*π*0.23²)

B =5.293 *10 ^-7 T  = 0.0005293 mT

The magnetic induction of the magnetic field is  0.0005293 mT

A 0.9 µF capacitor is charged to a potential difference of 10.0 V. The wires connecting the capacitor to the battery are then di
jeyben [28]

Answer:

3.6μF

Explanation:

The charge on the capacitor is defined by the formula

q = CV

because the charge will be conserved

q₁ = C₁V₂

q₂ = C₂V₂ where C₂ V₂ represent the charge on the newly connected capacitor  and the voltage drop across the two capacitor will be the same

q = q₁ + q₂ = C₁V₂ + C₂V₂

CV = CV₂ + C₂V₂

CV - CV₂ = C₂V₂

C ( V - V₂) = C₂V₂

C ( V/ V₂ - V₂ /V₂) = C₂

C₂ = 0.9 ( 10 /2) - 1) = 0.9( 5 - 1) = 3.6μF
