Describe how visible light is used with solar photovoltaic panels to produce electricity

Physics
1 answer:
padilas [110]2 years ago
6 0
Solar panels convert the sun's light into usable solar energy using N-type and P-type semiconductor material. When sunlight is absorbed by these materials, the solar energy knocks electrons loose from their atoms, allowing the electrons to flow through the material to produce electricity.

Which example best illustrates that light behaves like particles?
Andre45 [30]
Light bounces off a white cement sidewalk.

Particles generally can't pass through matter. All the other options show light moving through matter, except the space one. I don't think the space one is correct because particles normally don't move that fast.

What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 124m in 26s
krek1111 [17]
It's average speed during that 26 seconds was about 4.77 m/s. Without seeing the graph, we can't tell if it was going faster or slower at any particular time during that period. All we can tell is its average for the full interval.

What happens to the density of a given substance if you increase the amount of the substance that you have?
Amanda [17]
Have you ever looked up the density of a substance ?  You ought to try it.  Go ahead. Pick a substance, then go online or open up an actual book and find its density.  You will never see any particular volume mentioned along with the density . . . because it doesn't matter.  The whole idea of density is that it describes the substance, no matter how much or how little you have of it.  The density of a tiny drop of water under a microscope is the same as the density of a supertanker-ful of water.
