whenever the sun farts, it travels through a tube in space down to every solar panel on earth, and they use the power of the sun's farts to power the houses. On a cloudy day, they use your mom.

∙ 11y agosolar panels are just a way of cutting down on your electricity bills. But some say that how does a solar panel work. Light energy is one form that is essential to operate a solar panel, but heat is also required in this process. With the protons and nutorns surrounding it the electrons overlap it creating a molecule. This is similar to how a solar panel works.
Solar Panel:
The photovoltaic cells in the solar panels absorb heat and light which converts those energy to electrical energy.
The energy chain:
Heat---->Light--->Electricity

Is an outlet a source of electricity?
No, an outlet is only a distribution point. A source of electrical energy would be the generation station, wind generator, photovoltaic cells (solar energy panels) or other devices that actually produce electrical energy by changing energy from one type (chemical, solar...) to another.
How does sun generate electricity?
It can be used by solar panels to give a direct output of electric power. Or it can be used to make plants by photosynthesis, which uses the Sun's energy to break down carbon dioxide into carbon which is used for the plant tissues, and gives off oxygen. The plants can then be burned, which produces energy to drive an electric generator, and gives off carbon dioxide. When the plants have time to turn into coal or oil (100,000,000 years) that is caused a fossil fuel.
Photosynthesis converts solar energy into which type of energy?
Chemical energy
Space satelites rely on this type of energy?
There's only one: -- In a receiving dish, the collected and focused electromagnetic energy changes to electrical energy in the feed, LNA, or LNB at the focus of the dish. -- In a transmitting dish, the electrical energy from the transmitter changes to electromagnetic energy, either at the focus of the dish if the transmitter is mounted there, or else some distance from the dish and then moved to the focus through a hollow 'waveguide'.
What is Organic Solar Cell?
It is a cell that coverts solar energy into electrical energy
What type of energy does solar energy produce?
Solar energy is a wavelength. Solar panels produce D.C. or direct current.
What type of energy is gathered by solar panels and converted into electrical energy?
Solar energy.nuclear energy
How is solar energy stored in solar panels?
Trick question - it's not! Solar panels do not store energy but convert the Sun's energy into electricity. This direct current (DC) electricity (energy) is then transferred immediately through wires to a load (something that uses energy). For most residential uses, solar energy must be inverted from DC to AC (alternating current) which is the type of energy most houses use. So, actually, solar energy is not stored in solar panels, but converted into useable energy by solar panels.
Solar energy depends on?
Naturally, sunlight is the primary source of solar energy. Sunlight is one type of radiation that has energy-carrying photons in it. Photovoltaic cells, commonly referred to as solar panels, use the photovoltaic effect to transform these photons into electrical energy. In addition to weather, location, time of day, and the existence of any obstructions that might hinder sunlight, these variables also affect how successful solar energy systems are.
What type of energy does an iPod produce?
geothermal energy and solar energy
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 type of device is used to collect solar energy for heating water and houses?
Solar panels and heaters are used. They trap sun's energy.
Selecting The Right Panels For A Solar Power Generator?
A solar power generator is only as effective as the solar panels that are used to capture the energy from the sun. It is important to choose solar panels that are appropriate for the conditions in an area. Some solar panels will generate large amounts of power in direct sun, but will generate almost nothing in weak ambient light. Other solar panels will not produce as much electricity in direct sun, but will generate energy even in indirect light. The ratings on the solar panels can help to show how a panel will perform under certain conditions.
Does solar energy produce any type of gas?
No.
Will solar power produce enough energy?
It Depends On Whether It Is Solar Power Produced In Space Or By Solar Panels. Solar Panels Will Provide Enough For Household Items But Mains Power Will Need To Be Provided For Backup. Solar Power Produced In Space Is Used For Different Things Such As Sending Out Air Messages To Pieces Of Equipment Used To Calculate Distance Or Circumference Of Planets. This Type Of Solar Power Will Produce Enough As It Is Closer To The Sun.
Is an outlet a source of electricity?
No, an outlet is only a distribution point. A source of electrical energy would be the generation station, wind generator, photovoltaic cells (solar energy panels) or other devices that actually produce electrical energy by changing energy from one type (chemical, solar...) to another.
What type of energy does not used a turbine to produce electricity?
Solar
