9.  A solar panel is made up of many small solar cells. Each solar cell
uses light to make electricity.
 We see electricity at work every day. When a person turns on a
lamp, electrons move through the cord and light up the bulb. That
flow of electrons is electricity.
 The solar cell uses light to make electrons move. The cell is made
up of two different layers that are stuck together. The first layer is
loaded with electrons, so the electrons are ready to jump from
this layer to the second layer. That second layer has some
electrons taken away. It is ready to take in more electrons.
 When the light hits an electron in the first layer, the electron
jumps to the second layer. That electron makes another electron
move, which makes another electron move, and so on. So the light
started a flow of electrons, or electricity.
 The cars in this photo get their power from the flat solar panels on
top. Standing with each car is the team of high-school students
who designed, built, and raced it in the 2010 Solar Car Challenge

10. Q : what is the population going to be
of n.z in ten years ?

Q : do you think well need more or less
electricity in the future ?
A : We can keep electricity as long as
we need it as long as we use it wisely
If we waste power it will make it
harder to generate more power so use
electricity wisely

 Electricity is the flow of electrical power or
charge. It is both a basic part of nature and one
of our most widely used forms of energy.
