Abraham Oliver Tidwell. Signed and approved by Ronald Regan back when he was in office. My name is Carmelle Stowers Tidwell and I am his grandaughter and have in my posseion signed documentation as proof that my grandfather designed the way they work.

How do photocells convert light energy into electrical energy?

When photocells convert light energy into electrical energy many things happen. Most photocells contain silicon atoms. As long as a light shines on the photocell, electrons gain enough energy to move between atoms. The electrons are then able to move though a wire to provide electrical energy to a device, such as a calculator. Alek Peck Source Phisical Science textbook

How are photocells and thermocouple cells powered?

photocells are powered by the intensity of light. When we put the photocells in light the free electrons of the photocell move fast in other words they get the energy from light due to which their amplitude increases and they pass the electric charge rapidly hence the photocells are generate the power. Thermocouples are made of two different types of semi conductors when we heat the one end of the junction of thermocouple electric charge is produce this electric charge is a result of the movement of the free electrons as we increases the heat electric charge is also increase because the amplitude of the vibration of the free electrons is increases with the temprature
