<span>Two of them are "redshift" and "blueshift", which are used to describe an object'smotion toward or away from us in space. Redshift indicates that an object is moving away from us. "Blueshift" is a term that astronomers use to describe an object that is moving toward another object or toward us.</span>

What material is most commonly used to make a photovoltaic solar cell?
zaharov [31]

Solar cells can be classified into first, second and third generation cells. The first generation cells—also called conventional, traditional or wafer-based cells—are made of crystalline silicon, the commercially predominant PV technology, that includes materials such as polysilicon and monocrystalline silicon.

Identical isolated conducting spheres 1 and 2 have equal charges and are separated by a distance that is large compared with the
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

F = 0.1575 N

Explanation:

When the third sphere touches the first sphere, the charge is distributed between both spheres, then now the first sphere has only half of his original charge.

In this moment then

Sphere one has a charge = Q/2

Sphere three has a charge = Q/2

Now when the third sphere touches the second sphere again the charge is distributed in a manner that both sphere has the same charge.

How the total charge is Q = Q/2 + Q = 3/2Q, when the spheres are separated each one has 3/4Q

Sphere two has a charge = 3/4Q

Sphere three has a charge = 3/4Q

The electrostatic force that acts on sphere 2 due to sphere 1 is:

F = \frac{kQ_{1}Q_{2} }{r^{2} }

F= \frac{K(Q/2)(3Q/4)}{r^{2} }

how \frac{KQ^{2} }{r^{2} } = 0.42

Then

F = \frac{0.42*3}{8}

F = 0.1575 N
