A solar cell having Fill Factor (FF) 68% gives 0.6 V voltage at maximum power point at STC (input power density is 1000 W/m²). The cell gives 3 A short circuit current and 0.7 V open circuit voltage. The area of the solar cell is 50 cm². (i) What is the current at maximum power point of the solar cell? (ii) Calculate the power conversion efficiency of the cell. (iii) Draw the I-V curve of the cell.
