Explain briefly how solar energy is used to generate electricity

Physics
1 answer:
valkas [14]2 years ago

Answer:

Solar radiation may be converted directly into electricity by solar cells (photovoltaic cells). In such cells, a small electric voltage is generated when light strikes the junction between a metal and a semiconductor (such as silicon) or the junction between two different semiconductors.

Jenny and Betty are having a great time at Busch Gardens riding the Ubanga Banga bumper cars. Jenny, who is traveling southward
Alex777 [14]

Jenny is traveling southward.  In order to stop, she needs a northward acceleration.


A better way to say it:

Jenny is traveling southward in her bumper car, so the direction of her velocity is south.  In order to reduce her velocity to zero, a velocity of equal magnitude but directed north must be added to it.  Then the change in velocity is positive northward, and the change in velocity per unit time is acceleration.

A satellite has a mass of 5832 kg and is in a circular orbit 4.13 × 105 m above the surface of a planet. The period of the orbit
elena55 [62]

Answer:

W = 28226.88 N

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of the satellite, m = 5832 Kg

Height of the orbiting satellite from the surface, h = 4.13 x 10⁵ m

The time period of the orbit, T = 1.9 h

                                            = 6840 s

The radius of the planet, R = 4.38 x 10⁶ m

The time period of the satellite is given by the formula

                             T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{(R+h)^{3} }{R^{2} g} }  second

Squaring the terms and solving it for 'g'

                             g = 4 π² \frac{(R+h)^{3} }{R^{2}T^{2}  }   m/s²

Substituting the values in the above equation

                   g = 4 π² \frac{(4.38X10^6+4.13X10^5)^{3} }{(4.38X10^6)^{2}X6840^{2}}  

                                    g = 4.84 m/s²      

Therefore, the weight

                                     w = m x g   newton

                                         = 5832 Kg x 4.84 m/s²

                                         = 28226.88 N

Hence, the weight of the satellite at the surface, W = 28226.88 N
