Answer:

625 V

Step-by-step explanation:

Power is the product of voltage and current. The voltage of the solar panel can be computed from its power output and its operating current.

__

P = VI . . . . . relation between power, voltage, and current

V = P/I . . . . solved for voltage

V = 25,000/40 = 625 . . . . volts

The array voltage must be 625 volts for it to supply 25 kW at 40 A.
