NCERT Solution Class X Science Sources of Energy Question 1 (Ex 14.6)

Question 1:

A solar water heater cannot be used to get hot water on

(a) a sunny day (b) a cloudy day

(c) a hot day (d) a windy day

Answer:

(b) A solar water heater uses solar energy to heat water. It requires bright and

intense sunlight to function properly. On a cloudy day, the sunlight reflects back

in the sky from the clouds and is unable to reach the ground. Therefore, solar

energy is not available for the solar heater to work properly. Hence, solar

water heater does not function on a cloudy day.
