as long as the light is strong enough to heat the solar panel up
light
The energy of the sun is converted in light, which is then converted in heat. After that, the heat converts into electrical.
a solar collector turns light into heat, and uses that heat to create electricity.
The sun, the source of solar power, is full of heat. Therefore it has thermal energy
yes it called solar power
Both. Photoelectric cells work off light, and thermal collectors depend on heat.

Solar power is a source that comes from the Sun and it can be used to light and heat things for example houses, calculators and many more.
Solar energy refers to capturing energy (heat and light) from the sun- it is everywhere that the sun shines. Solar power systems include photoelctric systems, heat capture systems, etc.
light
black absorbs the light! and solar power uses the sun! more sun absorption more solar power! I thought the electrical current was produced by short-wave radiation, not infra-red (heat). in fact, as the heat goes up, the efficiency of the solar cell goes down.
Solar power is collected by solar panels, and stored in currents
power from the sun/light
solar energy. heat from the sun gives you heat and changes to light because heat can be used for light.
The energy of the sun is converted in light, which is then converted in heat. After that, the heat converts into electrical.
With solar cells, photons in light knock electrons off of the metal surface. This flow of electrons is called electricity. There are also solar collectors that utilize the heat from the sun to heat water etc.
