Solar Energy The amount of energy collected by a solar
Chapter 10, Problem 27(choose chapter or problem)
Solar Energy The amount of energy collected by a solar panel depends on the intensity of the suns rays and the area of the panel. Let the vector I represent the intensity, in watts per square centimeter, having the direction of the suns rays. Let the vector A represent the area, in square centimeters, whose direction is the orientation of a solar panel. See the figure. The total number of watts collected by the panel is given by W = I # A. Suppose that and (a) Find and and interpret the meaning of each. (b) Compute W and interpret its meaning(c) If the solar panel is to collect the maximum number of watts, what must be true about I and A?
