There are some experiments using magnifying lenses to focus the sun's rays on a particularly strong solar cell (do a search for Suncube).
Check the various Solar Car Trials to see if any are using magnifying lenses. They certainly could.
solar power because it better!!
solar!!
People first started using solar power around 700 B.C. with people burning ants with magnifying glasses.
Solar power is more environment friendly than coal power. Solar power is, however, more expensive than coal power.
Solar power is created by converting sunlight into electricity using photovoltaics or concentrated solar power through the use of lenses, mirrors or tracking systems. These CSPs work by focusing the energy into a small, concentrated beam of energy. Commercial solar power stations were first built in the 1980's.
yes it is
Solar power has its roots dating back to the 7th century B.C. when magnifying glasses were used to concentrate the sun's rays to create fire. However, the modern development of solar power began in the 19th century with the discovery of the photovoltaic effect by Alexandre Edmond Becquerel in 1839.
Solar power is collected by solar panels, and stored in currents
because solar power is better for the earth. coal is a fossil fuel so it is getting scarce. wind powered is the best to use.
if your using a magnifying glass, yes!
There are some better ones like water and solar power because you will always have them
A magnifying glass can be used to concentrate sunlight onto a specific spot, increasing the intensity of the light and creating heat. This can be used to start a fire, cook food, or generate electricity through a solar panel.
