1. Given a theoretical solar cell with open circuit (no load) output voltage of 0.55V and ideal diode parameter Io=2x10-11 A (for some certain sunlight conditions). a. What is the internal diode current, equal to the solar current when there is no load? b. Assuming the solar current stays the same as found in (a), what is the load current and output voltage when a 100 Ohm load resistor is connected? c. Assuming the solar current stays the same as found in (a), what is the load current and output voltage when a 10 Ohm load resistor is connected?
