IPhO 2013, Експеримент — Задача 2.7. The effect of the optical vessel (large cuvette) on the solar cell current

Solar cells — E2 · 7 юли 2013 г.

Warnings and notices

WARNING: Do not use the multimeter as an ohmmeter on the solar cells since the measuring current can damage them. When changing the measuring range on the multimeters, please turn the dial with caution. It can be unstable and may break. Check whether there is a number under the decimal point when measuring – if the dial is not fully in place, the multimeter will not measure, even if there are digits in the display.

Notice: Do not change the voltage on the power supply. It must be 12 V throughout the experiment. (The power supply for the light source should be connected to the outlet (230 V ~) at your table.)

Notice: Uncertainty considerations are only expected when explicitly mentioned.

Notice: All measured and calculated values must be given in SI units.

Notice: For all measurements of currents and voltages in this experiment, the LED-light source is supposed to be on.

Mount the light source in the box and place solar cell A in the single holder with the circular aperture immediately in front, so that there is approximately 50 mm between the solar cell and the light source. Place the empty optical vessel immediately in front of the circular aperture as shown in Fig. 2.8.

Figure 2.8 Experimental set-up for question 2.7.

2.7a Measure the current II, now as a function of the height, hh, of water in the vessel, see Fig. 2.8. Make a table of the measurements and draw a graph. [1 т.]

2.7b Explain with only sketches and symbols why the graph looks the way it does. [1 т.]

Mount the light source in the box and place solar cell A in the single holder so that the distance between the solar cell and the light source is maximal. Place the circular aperture immediately in front of the solar cell.

2.7c For this set-up do the following:

  • Measure the distance r1r_1 between the light source and the solar cell and the current I1I_1.
  • Place the empty vessel immediately in front of the circular aperture and measure the current I2I_2.
  • Fill up the vessel with water, almost to the top, and measure the current I3I_3. [0,6 т.]

2.7d Use your measurements from 2.7c to find a value for the refractive index nwn_{\mathrm{w}} for water. Illustrate your method with suitable sketches and equations. You may include additional measurements. [1,6 т.]
