Photovoltaic Solar Cells

Naomi Said:

Does water destroy solar cells ?

We Answered:

They should be sealed so that water can't get inside. If it does, it may ruin the panel.

Jessie Said:

How many solar cells would it take to create enough magnetic force from photovoltaic absorbtion to suck the ea

We Answered:

More than there is material on Earth to build them from. We are a speck compared to the size of the Sun. Anything we could reasonably do on this speck of sand is magnitudes less than would be required.

Also, solar cells are not 100% efficient, they only absorb specific spectra based on their design. So if you did have a massive solar array the solar wind would be pushing the earth away more than any EMF produced by the solar array would be pulling them together. We wouldn't get sucked into the sun, we would get blown away.

If I have a photovoltaic Cell and it generate 3.70v. and I need 12v55w4.58amps>how many cells do I need?

We Answered:

Each cell produces 3.7v.
You will need to specify what Ampage each cell produces before this question can be answered.
