Question

State the energy conversion taking place in the solar cell panel. For what purpose, solar cell panel is used? State its two main advantages.

Answer 1

Answer:

The energy conversion taking place in a solar panel, solar energy→ electricity

Solar cells combined in an arrangement is called a solar panel. The purpose of the solar panel is to harness solar energy and deliver enough electricity for practical use.

The two main advantages of solar panel are-

•No moving parts, require less maintenance and work satisfactorily without a focusing device.

•They can be set up in remote or inaccessible Hamlets, or very sparsely inhabited areas, in which laying of power transmission line may be expensive or not commercially viable.

Answer 2

Solar panels

Explanation:

A solar panel contains photovoltaic cells that convert solar energy into electric energy. Solar cells combined in an arrangement is called a solar panel. The purpose of the solar panel is to harness the sun's energy and produce electricity which are stored in batteries and used for domestic and industrial purposes.

Advantages of solar panels:

1. No moving parts.
2. Less maintenance.
3. Mass production can be set up in remote areas of incultivable land and transmitted to populated areas through wires.
