The solar panels on the roof of a house measure 40 mby 53 m


The solar panels on the roof of a house measure 4.0 mby 5.3 m. Assume they convert12% of the incident EM wave's energy to electrical energy.

(a) What average power do the panels supply when the incidentintensity is 1.0 kW/m2 and the panels areperpendicular to the incident light?

(b) What average power do the panels supply when the incidentintensity is 0.80 kW/m2 and the light is incidentat an angle of 60.0° from thenormal?

(c) Take the average daytime power requirement of a house tobe 1.5 kW. What do your answersto (a) and (b) imply for the use of solar panels?
