Is a solar cell an energy source?
A solar cell is not an energy source, but an energy converter. In the case of solar, the energy source is light, and the solar cell converts it from light energy to electrical energy.
What is the source of energy for a solar cell?
solar light is the source of energy for a solar light
Is the sun solar power?
yes sun is the source for solar power
What source solar power generates from?
The source that solar power generates electricity is the sun. All solar power is generated by the sun. The sun's energy is consumed by solar powered objects.
From what source Solar power generates electricitity?
The source that solar power generates electricity is the sun. All solar power is generated by the sun. The sun's energy is consumed by solar powered objects.
How does solar power get its power?
Solar power is generated by an unlimited source of energy called the sun.
Is solar power a clean power source?
Yes, solar power is a clean power source. It produces no waste products due to running off of the photoelectric effect.
What power does solar power use?
Solar power is generated by an unlimited source of energy called the sun.
What kind of energy source is the solar power plant?
Sun is the source of solar energy. Heat is present in solar energy.
Can solar cells used in mobile phones?
No, cell phones draw too much power to be supplied by solar cells, unless you used a large solar panel. But you certainly can't build a solar cell into the back of the phone like you would a solar calculator. For example, one web source says a cell phone draws about 1 W. Another web source says solar panels can put out about 1.2 W for 100 cm2 in bright sunlight. So to power the cell phone you'd need a solar panel at least as large as a CD, probably more like a sheet of paper.
How much power can a solar cell produce?
That will vary a lot, depending on the size of the solar cell.
Is solar power renewable or indefinite?
Solar power is renewable source of energy that means it is indefinite.
