The theory of solar cells explains the process by which light energy in photons is converted into electric current when the photons strike a suitable ... more
In various scientific contexts, a scale height is a distance over which a quantity decreases by a factor of e (approximately 2.71828, the base of natural ... more
A graveyard orbit, also called a junk orbit or disposal orbit, is a supersynchronous orbit that lies significantly above synchronous orbit, where ... more
Operation of a solar cell can be understood from the equivalent circuit at right. Light, of sufficient energy (greater than the bandgap of the material), ... more
The shaft bending moment due to yaw depends on the blades of the rotor. In this case the rotor has 2 blades
