Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The power output of the cell, in watts needs to be calculated if the area of the cell is
Concept introduction:
Solar energy is referred to as the process capturing the energy from the sun and subsequently converting it into electricity.
Electricity energy is the form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge.
Energy conversion concept is changing energy from one form to another.
The area can be defined as space occupied by a flat shape or the surface of an object
Unit-square.
(b)
Interpretation:
The amount of current delivered by cell with voltage 0.45 V needs to be determined.
