What is the best example of convection?
I don't think such a thing as a "best" example exists. Here are some examples; take your pick which of these you like "best"; or look for additional examples:* In part of the Sun, energy is transported outwards through convection. * When you boil water (or, for that matter, anything that contains water), convection will make the water move around in the pot. * In solar panels - of the type that heat water - convection moves colder water from the tank to the panels, and it moves hotter water back to the tank. * Wind is the result of convection.
What type of energy resource is solar energy?
Solar energy takes the form of radiation. Solar panels may allow this solar energy to be converted to heat or to electricity. (Electricity is not a fuel or even energy: it is a means of transferring energy).
What are some different uses for refraction?
Different uses include:- 1) Magnifying Glass 2) Fishing 3) Explorations 4) Some Solar Panels, Etc.
Do solar panels work?
Yes, solar panels do work but it depends what you are using them for. A lot of solar panels are for toys etc and they would be small. But there are solar panels suited, being larger, for industry or residential.
What is the main source for solar energy?
The nuclear fission on the sun is the main source for solar energy. This radiation strikes the earth where it is captured by photovoltaic (PV) panels, or focussed on a Solar Tower. Both methods produce electricity, which is clean and renewable.
Do solar panels release radiation?
no
How is the troposphere heated?
The process of the troposphere is that the lower layer (which is this one) is heated by the sun that the heat comes from the upper layers. Also the troposphere is the atmosphere we live in the weather in other words. Which is 0-10km.
How many solar panels is needed to get twelve hours of 25 amps?
The answer will depend on where on earth the solar panels are located, how efficient the panels are at converting solar radiation into electricity.
Why are solar panels painted black?
Because black absorbs radiation.
Can solar panels make electricity and heat?
Yes they can. Solar panels convert radiation from the sun into usable electricity. They electricity can then be converted into heat

Can solar panels be used at night?
Solar panels work because of infra-red radiation from the sun. the sun cannot be seen at night because it is at the other side of the world. My guess is no but I am not a scientist.
What are the uses of convection in everyday life?
Here is an interesting use: in our solar water heater, the hot water in the panels automatically goes up, because it is lighter. This makes it flow into the top part of the hot water tank, and the water in the panels is replaced by cold water from the bottom part of the tank. In summary, the hot water system wouldn't work without convection.
Why are solar panels black in color?
black is colour that can obsorb heat,since solar panals collect energy from the sun by heat radiation, it only makes sense to have the solar panels dark in colour.
Where can one find information on how to make solar panels?
A person can find information on how to make solar panels online. Some online sites that offer information on the making of solar panels include Instructables and wikiHow.
Where can one find reviews for multiplication games?
One can find reviews for multiplication games from game review panels. These panels include IGN, Gamerscore, Playstation Network, and Microsoft games.
Do solar panels produce radiation which then harms humans?
A solar panel collects energy from sunlight, just like windmills convert wind energy. The mechanics inside the solar panel and inside the building let humans use solar energy. There is no more harm to humans from solar energy than there is from using energy produced from the wind.
