The mirror formula for curved mirrors is:
where
f is the focal length of the mirror
is the distance of the object from the mirror
is the distance of the image from the mirror
The sign convention that should be used in order to find the correct values is the following:
-
: positive if the mirror is concave, negative if the mirror is convex
-
: positive if the image is real (located on the same side of the object), negative if it is virtual (located on the opposite side of the mirror)
Answer:
No
Explanation:
The reason why no current is produced are basically that, the wavelengths of light in the Balmer transition are reflected, not absorbed in solar panels, hence no current is produced.
The Balmer series consists of lines in the visible spectrum. It corresponds to emission of a photon of light when electrons descend from higher energy levels to the n=2 level in the hydrogen spectrum. The various wavelengths in the Balmer series can be separated by a prism since they are all in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
In solar panels, light corresponding to the wavelengths in the Balmer series is merely reflected by the panel and not absorbed. Since light is not absorbed, no current can be produced when the panel is irradiated with light corresponding to the wavelengths in the Balmer series.
The answer is Alternating Current
