If each cell in the module in Problem 4 produces 3A, describe the system required to produce at least 20 A at 32 V.
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

To obtain 32 V from a PV module, how many individual cells must be used and how should they be connected (assume 0.5 V per cell)?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Answer to Question 1

The cells within the module are in series (as shown in problem 4), so the module voltage is 32 V and the module is rated for 3 A.

To produce 20 A total, (20 A/3 A) = 7 modules in parallel are required. ITOT = 7(3A) = 21 A

Answer to Question 2

Number of series cells = 32 V/0.5 V = 64 cells in series

Drug abusers experience the following scenario: The pleasure given by their drug (or drugs) of choice is so strong that it is difficult to eradicate even after years of staying away from the substances involved. Certain triggers may cause a drug abuser to relapse. Research shows that long-term drug abuse results in significant changes in brain function that persist long after an individual stops using drugs. It is most important to realize that the same is true of not just illegal substances but alcohol and tobacco as well.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
