About This Product

The mounted cell is connected into a circuit with 4mm leads so its output voltage can be measured. It can be used to investigate how output voltage varies with the area of cell exposed, with the colour or wavelength of light using filters, and with light intensity using a light meter, and to find the load for maximum power transfer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What investigations can be done with the Solar Cell - Mounted?

How output voltage varies with exposed area, light colour or wavelength and light intensity, and how maximum power depends on the electrical load and light intensity.
