How is a solar collector related to solar energy?
A solar collector, or solar panel is what collects solar energy. The energy that is generated by the solar collector is then routed to either a battery or an inverter that converts the energy to AC voltage.
A device on a building that absorbs radiant energy from the sun is what?
A device on a building that absorbs radiant energy from the sun is called a photovoltaic cell. It is also commonly known as a solar panel.
What energy transformation happens when using solar panels?
Nuclear through solar
What energy transformations in solar calculator?
The energy transformation in a solar calculator is from radiant(light) energy to electrical energy.
What is the energy transformation in the solar power plant?
solar (photovoltaic) power plant > radiant energy from the sun > converted to electrical energy

How does solar get its?
Solar systems get their energy from the sun. Solar energy is captured by a solar panel, or collector. This panel converts solar energy to electrical energy.

What is an active solar collector?
A solar collector that has motors and a guiding system to point towards the Sun which improves efficiency. A passive collector has no such systems.
Where would you find a solar collector?
in a place trying to collect solar energy
What is a device that absorbs the Suns radiant energy?
A solar collector, solar panel
Is a device that absorbs the Suns radiant energy?
A solar collector, solar panel

What form of energy is made with a photovoltaic collector?
solar
How is solar a energy transformation?
I'm not sure what you mean by this question. Do you mean "How is solar engergy transformed?" or "What are some examples of solar energy transformations?"
