How To Make Solar Cell

Cathy Said:

How many solar cells is needed to make about 1 kilowatt?

We Answered:

200 ma = .2 A
Each cell produces .09 w. (.45V x .2A).
Assuming no loss in the interconnecting wiring then it would take: 1000 / .09 cells; or 11111 cells.

Watts = volts x amps.
or
Watts = volts x (milliamps / 1000)

how can i make a solar car??

We Answered:

solar cells will charge a battery
battery will power an electric motor.
electric motor will move the car.
seems easy but it's not.
even if you cover a car with solar cells, the energy they provide will be much less than needed for a normal car usage.
