Question

I need help filling out the tables. This is supposed to be a theoretical experiment, I'm not actually supposed to do it. But I have to fill out the tables as if I were doing the experiment and with the question "How does the angle of the solar panel affect the amount of electricity produced?"

Answer 1

Independent Variable: Angle of the solar panel

Dependent Variable: Amount of electricity produced

Constant Variables:

1. Type of solar panel: Single type for all measurements
2. Intensity of the lamp: Controlled and consistent illumination
3. Duration of the experiment: Equal exposure time for each measurement

Keeping the variable constant:

• Independent Variable: Maintained constant using a protractor and repeated measurements
• Dependent Variable: Measured using a multimeter. Constant using the same solar panel, fixed lamp distance, and consistent conditions

So, the Independent Variable is Angle of the solar panel. It is the angle at which the solar panel is positioned relative to the incoming sunlight. To Keeping the independent variable constant, use a protractor to ensure the angle of the solar panel is accurately measured and maintained at each setting.

Lastly, The Dependent Variable is the amount of electricity produced. The amount of electrical potential generated by the solar panel as it converts sunlight into electricity. Keeping the dependent variable constant is by the use of the same solar panel for all measurements to ensure consistency in its efficiency and performance.
