HOW DO THEY WORK (SOLAR)
The workings of a solar car are far less complicated than an ordinary
gasoline powered car; actually they are quite similar to a battery powered
RC car. Basically a solar car is composed of an electric motor, batteries,
photovoltaic cells and a power controller. The PV cells absorb sunlight
and convert it into electricity, which is sent through the batteries and
to the controller, which determines how much electricity is sent to the
motor, which pushes the car at up to speeds of 120 km/h (75 mph)
HOW DO THEY WORK, ELECTRIC MOTOR (SOLAR)
Electric motors are nothing new; in fact they have been around for years
upon years and their not uncommon either. They would be all around you're
house, in your oven, your microwave, your VCR, your computer, your stereo
etc….
