Why is silicon needed in solar panels?

1 answer:

4 0

Hi, silicon is essential in solar panels because, silicon is a semiconductor material (meaning a solid substance that has a conductivity of an insulator and is an essential component of most electric circuits ) now, when dipped with impurities such as gallium and arsenic it has the ability to capture the suns energy and convert to electricity. hope this is helpful if it is than put a thank you plz.

A series RCL circuit consists of a 50 Ω resistor, 500 Ω capacitor, and a 500 Ω inductor. What is the angle of impedance?

Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

here, the inductive reactance and the capacitive reactance is same, so this is the condition for resonance.

In the condition for resonance,

the circuit and the voltage in the circuit is in the same phase and the impedance of the circuit is minimum which is equal to the resistance of the circuit.

The phase angle is given by

$tan\phi =\frac{X_{L}-X_{C}}{R}$

Ф = 0

A grocery shopper tosses a(n) 9.4 kg bag of rice into a stationary 19.9 kg grocery cart. The bag hits the cart with a horizontal

IRINA_888 [86]

The final speed of the cart and the bag is 2.2 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, in absence of external forces, the total momentum of the bag and the cart must be conserved before and after the collision.

Mathematically:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v$
