Electrical power from solar panels, or any other source, can be transmitted wirelessly, however, not economically nor with great efficiency. Therefore I would say that it is impractical to do so on a large scale. One such scheme has been described would gather solar energy using orbiting arrays then sending it to receivers on earth's surface as a narrow beam of microwaves. There are solar powered wireless charging devices for small electronics that are available.

What is needed to run a power stations?

sunlight and photovoltaic panels (solar cells/panels) also electronic power inverters to change the DC from the panels into AC to send to the power grid.

On a wired Xbox 360 controller is the data transmitted through the USB wire or is the data transmitted wirelessly and the wire is only used to power the controller?

On a wired controller everything is transferred threw the usb wire. This why you must always make sure that there is not any damage to the cord or else the controls might not work or seem "sluggish". On a wired controller all the power is threw the cord, which again can be disrupted by any damage to the cord itself.


Will solar panels work on mars?

Solar panels can work on Mars, but not as efficiently as on Earth. Mars receives about half the sunlight Earth does and has dust storms that could cover the panels, reducing their effectiveness. However, with proper maintenance and positioning, solar panels can still provide power for missions and potential future habitats on Mars.


How do you generate power through sound?

Sound is caused by vibrations, and (at least experimentally) energy could be derived from the variance in transmitted vibrations.

How many monocrystaline solar panels are needed to power a home?

That depends on the power consumption of the home and the size of the panels. A typical home can be powered with about 7 to 10 Kw's of panels. Energy conservation techniques would need to be enforced to stay with those parameters. I have 2 Kw's of panels on my home and power over 20% of my home on the panels. Your results will vary by location and energy requirements.
