What type of energy is stored in solar panels

Physics
1 answer:
Andru [333]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:Thermal Storage

Concentrating solar plants can capture heat from the sun and store the energy in water, molten salts, or other fluids. This stored energy is later used to generate electricity, enabling the use of solar energy even after sunset.

Explanation: Solar panels use the photons produced by sunlight to generate direct current (DC) electricity. When the photons hit the panel they are absorbed by the panel's semiconducting silicon material. During this process electrons separate from the atoms and move around the solar cell.

If a toy has a mass of 1 kg, it has an Earth weight of​
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The answer is 9.8 N

Explanation:

As we know that the weight of an object is the amount of gravitational force acting on the object in an upward direction if the weight is acting is the downward direction.

The formula of weight:

W = Mass x Gravitational force

W = m x g

Given data:

Mass =1 kg

g = 9.8 ms-2

W = 1kg x 9.8 ms-2 = 9.8 kgms-2 ( 1 kgms-2 = N)

SO,  

W = 9.8 N

The toy has an earth weight of 9.8 N.

A computer is connected across a 110 V power supply. The computer dissipates 123 W of power in the form of electromagnetic radia
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

81.3ohms

Explanation:

Resistance is known to provide opposition to the flow of electric current in an electric circuit.

Power dissipated by the computer is expressed as;

Power = current (I) × Voltage(V)

P = IV... (1)

Note that from ohms law, V = IR

I = V/R ... (2)

Substituting equation 2 into 1, we will have;

P = (V/R)×V

P = V²/R.. (3)

Given source voltage = 100V, Power dissipated = 123W

To get resistance R of the computer, we will substitute the given value into equation 3 to have

123 = 100²/R

R = 100²/123

R = 10,000/123

R = 81.3ohms

The resistance of the computer is 81.3ohms

A lawyer drives from her​ home, located 1 mile east and 8 miles north of the town​ courthouse, to her​ office, located 4 miles w
givi [52]

Answer:

d = 13 miles

Explanation:

Lets say the position of court house is origin in this case

her office is located at 4 miles west and 4 miles south of court house

so here we have coordinate of the office with respect to court house is given as

r_1 = (-4\hat i - 4\hat j)

now the position of her home is located at 1 miles east and 8 miles north of the court house

so the coordinates of her home is given as

r_2 = (1\hat i + 8 \hat j)

now the change in the position is given as the distance between office and home

d = r_2 - r_1

d = 5 \hat i + 12 \hat j

d = \sqrt{5^2 + 12^2} = 13 miles
