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

1 answer:

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.

Write a hypothesis about the use of an object’s physical characteristics to determine its density. Use the format "if . . . then

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

If an object has a high density then the molicules making up that object are closly packed togeather. Because of this, objects with a higher density will have more mass than objects of the same size that have a lesser density.

An object with little mass won't require a lot of force to move.

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Heavier objects (objects with more mass) are more difficult to move and stop. Heavier objects (greater mass) resist change more than lighter objects. Example: Pushing a bicycle or a Cadillac, or stopping them once moving. The more massive the object (more inertia) the harder it is to start or stop.

Suppose you want to use this human engine to lift a 2.35 kg box from the floor to a tabletop 1.30 m above the floor. How much mu

morpeh [17]

Answer:

The increase in the gravitational potential energy is 29.93 joules.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the box, m = 2.35 kg

It is lifted from the floor to a tabletop 1.30 m above the floor, h = 1.3 m

We need to find the increase the gravitational potential energy. Initial it will placed at ground i.e. its initial gravitational potential is equal to 0. The increase in the gravitational potential energy is given by :

$U=mgh$

$U=2.35\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1.3\ m$

U = 29.93 Joules

So, the increase in the gravitational potential energy is 29.93 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
