Complete question is;

You are looking at a module specification

sheet that has the table of information

below. What is the maximum power of this

module in Watts to the nearest whole Watt?

Value

Polycrystalline si

Characteristic

Cell Type

Cell

Configuration

Voc

160 in series

137.2 V

V_imp: 29.3 V

Ilsc: 8.60 A

I_Imp: 8.02 A

Dimensions (mm/in): 1000 x 1600 x 50 mm / 39.4" x 63" x 2"

Weight: 10 kg / 22 lbs​

Answer:

P ≈ 235 Watts

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for power is;

P = IV

Now, for maximum power, we will make use of I_imp and V_imp given

Thus, P = I_imp × V_imp

We are given;

V_imp: 29.3 V

I_Imp: 8.02 A

Thus: P = 8.02 × 29.3 = 234.986 Watts

We are to approximate to the nearest whole watt.

Thus: P ≈ 235 Watts
