Answer to Question #61047 in Electric Circuits for Raigeda

Question

A particular application requires a 48V power supply, capable of supplying up to 960W. If a single solar cell is able to supply a current of 2A at a voltage of 0.6V, an array of such cells that would just meet the specification would consist of:(select one)a. 80 parallel-connected sets of cells,where each set consists of 10 cells connected in series. b.160 parallel-connected sets of cells,where each set consists of 20 cells connected in series. c.10 parallel-connected sets of cells, where each set consists 160 cells connected in series. d. 10 parallel-connected sets of cells, where each set consists of 80 cells connected in series. e. 20 parallel-connected sets of cells, where each set consists of 160 cells connected in series.

Answer 1
