The main problem with solar panels is that they can only utilize energy from a few discrete wavelengths, which are not in the ultraviolet range. It is a matter of quantum physics: the electrons in the atoms in the solar panel will only be excited by photons that match their energy levels. Unlike incandescent lamps, which, like the sun, emits photons in a continuum of different wavelengths, the different varieties of UV lamps release photons from atoms at discrete wavelengths, with very little, if any, photons in the visible range that might be fodder for solar panel usage.

Can you power a solar panel using a torch or an electrical lamp?
as long as the light is strong enough to heat the solar panel up
What kind of energy does a heat lamp give?
heat and light energy
How could a lamp or water pump work at night using a solar cell?
Anything attached directly to a solar cell will only work when the cell is putting out enough energy - or if the cell is getting enough sunlight. If there is no battery or capacitor attached between the solar cell and the lamp or water pump, for example, they will only work when the solar cell is receiving sunlight.
What energy is present in a lighted lamp?
light energy is present in a ligthed lamp.......
Which energy conversion takes place when a solar cell is used to light a street lamp?
light to electricity to light (plus that old devil heat).
Can a solar panel work under a lamp?
Yes, but the output of the panel will be less than the input to the lamp.

What is a solar lamp?
Well, a Solar Lamp is a normal lamp but does not work with electricity or batteries - it uses the suns energy. So it charges during the day and then uses up that energy at night or in dark places
What kind of energy does a heat lamp give?
heat and light energy
Can a solar panel run on lamp light?
Well, yes, but the light is so weak that you won't generate much electricity.
What time and why is the solar energy most intense?
when it comes from the source ex) lamp,sun,etc
How do we use solar power?
Solar energy plays an indispensable role in our daily life, solar energy products are also varied, and what makes me feel bright is the solar lamp, which replaces the traditional battery lamp, there is no need to plug in, only the use of solar energy can achieve lighting, after understanding the relevant articles, I also have a more in-depth understanding of this product, it is really convenient and fast! Maybe you could search for Gigalumi for more information~
Is the following statement true or false Solar panels collect energy from the sun that can then power a lamp in a home.?
true
How many 290 lumen 7 watt light bulb is needed to power a 5 watt 12 volt solar panel?
None, since one does not normally "power" a solar panel. However a single 7w lamp would be useable with a 5watt panel but with reduced efficiency unless the panel was used to charge a battery first and then the bulb was powered by the battery.

Does a lamp have chemical energy?
when you turn on a lamp it is first light energy to chemical energy!
What energy is present in a lighted lamp?
light energy is present in a ligthed lamp.......
