A solar cell, 3.0 cm square, has an output of 350 mA at 0.80 V when exposed to full sunlight. A solar panel that delivers close

to 1.0 A of current at an emf of 120 V to an external load is needed. How many cells will you need to create the panel? How big a panel will you need, and how should you connect the cells to one another? How can you optimize the output of your solar panel?

Answer:

You will need 450 cells (3 cm each) to meet the voltage/current requirement.

The panel must be 3 cells in one side, by 150 cell in another side. 1350 cm^2 or 0.135 m^2. They must be connected 3 in row in parallel (to add current), then each of the former group must be connected in series to meet the voltage, so it would be 150 rows of connected in series.

The panel can be optimized using a voltage inverter, to convert current to voltage. In this way, less cells can be used achieving the same output specs.

Explanation:

To meet the voltage:

120 [v] required voltage

0.8 [v] voltage of each cell

\frac{120}{0.8} =150[v]\\

So we need 150 cells in series for the voltage.

To meet the current

1.0 [A]      Required current

350[mA]=0.35[A] cell current

1/0.35=3 cell So we need 3 cells in parallel to add the currents and meet the requirement.

How do the individual forces compare when the rider experiences a sensation being lighter than his normal weight ? What is the a
shusha [124]

Answer:

When the elevator is accelerating downward, the person feels lighter due to the downward normal force being less than the person's weight.

Explanation:

A person riding in an elevator subjected to a series of unbalanced forces depending on the direction the elevator is travelling.

Two forces are acting on the person; the force of gravity and the upward normal force from the elevator.

When the elevator is going upwards with acceleration a, the person feels heavier than his normal weight, due to the upward normal force being greater than the person's weight. N = mg + ma

When the elevator is moving downwards with acceleration a, the person feels lighter due to the downward normal force being less than the person's weight. N = mg - ma

However, when the elevator is moving up or down at constant velocity ie. acceleration a = 0, the person experience a normal force equal to weight. N = mg

When the elevator is moving downwards with acceleration a = g, the person experiences weightlessness. N = (mg - mg) = 0

The culture that gave the visiting Europeans eyeglasses and silk fabric was the Chinese civilization. The Chinese invented eyeglasses over a 1,000 years ago<span>, according to British scientist and historian Sir Joseph Needman. By the time Marco Polo arrived in China around 1270, eyeglasses (which he mentions in his accounts) were widely used in Chinese upper class. On the other hand, s</span>ilk has been used by the Chinese for approximately 5,000 years.<span> The earliest evidence of silk dates back to around 4,000-3,000 BC in Shanxi province, where a culture silk cocoon was found.</span>
