-
All of the above
-
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. It is the radiant light and heat from the sunExplanation
Solar energy refers to the radiant light and heat emitted by the sun. It is a form of renewable energy that can be harnessed and converted into electricity or used for heating and lighting purposes. Solar energy is abundant and sustainable, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to fossil fuels. By harnessing solar energy, we can reduce our dependence on non-renewable energy sources and mitigate the negative impacts of climate change.Rate this question:

How does solar panels absorb solar energy?
-
By converting photons to electrons
-
By converting protons to electrons
-
By converting electrons to photons
-
By converting electrons to protons
Correct Answer
A. By converting photons to electronsExplanation
Solar panels absorb solar energy by converting photons (particles of light) into electrons. When sunlight hits the solar panel, it excites the electrons in the panel's semiconductor material, causing them to be released from their atoms. These free electrons are then captured and channeled into an electric current, which can be used to power electrical devices or stored for later use. This process is known as the photovoltaic effect and is the fundamental principle behind the functioning of solar panels.Rate this question:
-
- 14.
What is this?
-
Solar box
-
Solar plate
-
Solar panel
-
Solar mirror
Correct Answer
A. Solar panelExplanation
A solar panel is a device that converts sunlight into electricity. It is made up of multiple solar cells that are connected together. These cells absorb the sunlight and generate an electric current. The electricity produced by a solar panel can be used to power various devices or stored in batteries for later use. Solar panels are commonly used in solar energy systems to provide renewable and clean energy.Rate this question:
-
- 15.
What energy is absorb by the solar panels?
-
Sound energy
-
Solar energy
-
Kinetic energy
-
Chemical energy
Correct Answer
A. Solar energyExplanation
Solar panels absorb solar energy. Solar energy refers to the energy from the sun that is converted into usable electricity by the solar panels. The panels are designed to capture the sunlight and convert it into electrical energy through a process called the photovoltaic effect. This energy can then be used to power various devices or stored in batteries for later use.Rate this question:
