1.	If a sillicon solar cell of dimension 1 cm^(2) generates current of about 30 mA and potential difference of about 0.5 V. Find the current and potential difference generated bya sillicon solar cell of dimension 1000 cm^(2).
Answer» Solution :For a SILICON solar cell of dimension 1000 `CM^(2)` Current generated `=30mA//c^(2)x1000cm^(2)` =30000 mA=30 A Since POTENTIAL difference available from a solar cell is independent of its area, Potential difference generated =0.5 V.
